casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: Asrar Hussain Khan v. New India Assurance Company Ltd. Outcome: The Supreme Court granted leave and allowed the appeal in part on September 20, 2001. The Court modified the Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal's compensation award from Rs. 88,000 to Rs. 1,76,000 (with 12% interest from filing date). The Court found the Tribunal erred by considering the deceased's impending marriage when calculating his family contribution; since he was unmarried at death, his annual contribution should have been Rs. 16,000 rather than Rs. 8,000. Case Details: The appeal arose from a fatal bus accident near Dcora Bridge on the Pilibhit-Bareilly Road where Suleman Khan (appellant's son) died due to rash and negligent driving. No further directions or next steps were specified. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
