RAFIQ, J.—This appeal has been filed by the claimant-appellants assailing the award of the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal Kekri, Ajmer dated 26.10.2009 only on the ground that learned Tribunal erred in law while making 1/3rd deduction instead of 1/4th in view of judgment of Supreme Court in Sarla Verma & Others vs. Delhi Transport Corporation & Another : (2009) 6 SCC 121 = 2009(1) CCR 276 (SC) = 2009(4) RLW 2785 (SC). 2. Learned counsel for the respondents has opposed the appeal but could not dispute the law laid down by the Supreme Court in the aforesaid judgment. 3. Upon hearing learned counsel for the parties and perused the award, I find that learned Tribunal indeed committed an error while making 1/3rd deduction towards self expenses because as per the judgment of Supreme Court in Sarla Verma supra, in the event of number of dependents from four to six, deduction of 1/4th should be made as in the instant case, there are six dependents. Similarly, learned Tribunal erred in law while applying the multiplier of 17 while, on the age of 23, multiplier of 18 should be applied. 4. Thus, after deduction of 1/4th : 3000-750=2250, multiplied by 12 months and applying the multiplier of 18 : 2250x12x18, the amount comes to Rs.4,86,000/-. The award of Rs.4,30,000/- is thus enhanced to Rs.4,86,000/-. The appellants shall be entitled to interest on the enhanced amount of compensation of Rs.56,000/- (4,86,000-4,30,000) @7.5% from the date of filing of the claim petition. 5. The appeal is thus allowed.
