In appeal it is pleaded that deduction should be one half since the deceased is a bachelor but in this case ?rd has been deducted and that is the ground on which appeal is filed. However, on hearing the counsel for the parties, Court finds no good reason to reduce the quantum of compensation in view of the fact that no amount has been granted for love and affection to the father, mother, two unmarried sisters and two other sisters. Assuming that the deduction in income should be half as pleaded by the counsel for the appellant still then the excess, if any, same be adjusted on heads in which no amount has been granted. No ground is made out for reducing the compensation. 9. Accordingly, the appeal stands dismissed.
