Hon'ble RAFIQ, J.—This appeal has been filed by the claimant appellant dissatisfied with the quantum of compensation awarded by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Tonk vide award dated 24.5.2004 in the sum of Rs.1,14,000/- for the injuries sustained by the appellant in a road accident. 2. Contention of the learned counsel for the appellant is that the learned Tribunal erred in law while awarding cumulative amount of compensation in the sum Rs.85,000/- for pain and suffering & loss of earning capacity. Learned Tribunal also awarded a meager amount of compensation of Rs.20,000/- for medical expenses, transportation charges & nutritious diet cumulatively and Rs.9,000/- for loss of income. 3. Learned counsel for the respondents has opposed the appeal and argued that learned Tribunal did not commit any error in awarding Rs.1,14,000/- as compensation, which is perfectly justified on the basis of evidence available on record. 4. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the award, I find that Rs.85,000/- cumulatively awarded under the head of pain and suffering & loss of earning capacity is towards some lower side and it is liable to be enhanced marginally. Atleast Rs.15,000/- is liable to be additionally awarded for 'pain and suffering'. 5. In the result, the appeal is allowed in part. The award dated 24.5.2004 is modified to the extent that Rs.15,000/- is additionally awarded under the head of 'pain and suffering'. Thus, compensation amount of Rs.1,14,000/- is enhanced to Rs.1,29,000/-. Appellant is entitled to interest on the enhanced amount of compensation @7.5% from the date of filing claim petition. Record be transmitted back to the Tribunal forthwith.
