Hon'ble RAFIQ, J.—This appeal has been filed by the claimants aggrieved by the award of the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal dated 31.10.1994, which has granted compensation to the tune of Rs. 1,59,400 for the accidental death of husband of appellant no.1 Morpal. 2. Shri Vinay Mathur, learned counsel for the appellants has confined his challenge only on two grounds. His first submission is that the Supreme Court in Sarla Verma & Ors. vs. Delhi Transport Corporation & Anr. (2009) 6 SCC 121 = 2009(1) CCR 276 (SC) = 2009(4) RLW 2785 (SC) has been held that 1/4th amount should have been deducted for the self expenses from the income of the deceased where the number of dependents are 5, while the Tribunal has deducted 1/3rd under that head. His second contention is that the deceased was aged 26-27 years at the time of accident and, therefore, in view of the aforesaid judgement of Sarla Verma, the multiplier of 17 would be applied for the age group of 26-30 years. 3. Shri Tripurari Sharma, learned counsel for the respondent-insurance company though opposed the appeal, but could not dispute the aforesaid facts. 4. Thus, accepting the income of deceased to be Rs.1200 as held by the Tribunal, deducting 1/4th towards self expenses and applying the multiplier of 17, the loss of dependency comes to Rs.1,83,600 (1200x3/4thx17x12). The amount of Rs.15,000 granted to the wife for loss of love and affection and Rs.5,000 each granted to the children is however maintained. The father and mother of the deceased, however, are granted Rs.5,000 each for loss of love and affection. Thus the total amount of compensation comes to Rs.2,18,600 (1,83600+15000+10000 +10000). 5. The amount of compensation is thus enhanced from Rs.1,59,400 to Rs.2,18,600. The appellant is also entitled to interest @ 7.5% on the enhanced amount of compensation from the date of filing of the claim petition. 6. The appeal is allowed. 7. Compliance of the judgment be made within three months from the date copy of this judgment is produced before the respondents.
