Moreover, instead of taking the notional income as Rs. 15,000/-, the Apex Court had taken the notional income as Rs. 30,000/- considering the fact that the value of Rupee has been declining over the years.

In the light of the Apex Court decision of Kishan Gopal (supra) upholding the case of Sarla Verma v. Delhi Transport Corporation, (2009) 6 SCC 121 , a multiplier of 18 is applicable to a person aged 24 years.
