It appears that, Tribunal has calculated monthly income of the deceased as Rs.28,500/- and at the time of accident deceased was 37 years old, therefore multiplier of 15 is applied. However, from the calculation chart, it appears that, no future prospects are awarded. 9. It is the contention of learned Counsel for respondent No.2 that, there was no pleading in the Claim Petition in respect of future prospects. It appears from the Claim Petition fled before the Tribunal that, appellants have mentioned about 50% future prospects i.e. of Rs.22,48,089/-. 10. It is contention of the learned Counsel for the appellants that, loss of consortium granted by the Tribunal is Rs.1,00,000/- which should be Rs.1,60,000/- as there are four appellants i.e. amount of Rs. 40,000/- each. 11. Admittedly, the future prospects are not granted by the Tribunal. As per view taken by the Hon’ble Apex Court in the case of National Insurance Company Limited Vs. Pranay Sethi and Others in Special Leave Petition (Civil) No.25590 of 2014 decided on 31st October, 2017. Appellants are entitle for 50% future prospects, as deceased was in permanent employment and below 40 years of age. The Hon’ble Apex Court in the case of Magma General Insurance Company Ltd. Vs. Nanu Ram in Civil Appeal No. 9581 of 2018 decided on 18 September, 2018 reported in 2018 SCC Online SC 1546, has held that in legal parlance, “consortium” is a compendious term which encompasses ‘spousal consortium’, ‘parental consortium’, and ‘filial consortium’. The right to consortium would include the company, care, help, comfort, guidance, solace and affection of the deceased, which is a loss to his family. With respect to a spouse, it would include sexual relations with the deceased spouse. Spousal consortium is generally defined as rights pertaining to the relationship of a husband-wife which allows compensation to the surviving spouse for loss of “company, society, cooperation, affection, and aid of the other in every conjugal relation.” Parental consortium is granted to the child upon the premature death of a parent, for loss of “parental aid, protection, affection, society, discipline, guidance and training.” Appellants are entitle for consortium amount of Rs.40,000/- each. If it calculates the amount of future prospects and consortium amount the appellants are entitled to receive the following compensation :- Sr. Head Compensation 1. Monthly income of deceased Rs.28,500/- 2.

Annual income Rs.32063/- X 12 Rs.384756/- 5. Multiplier 15 Rs. 38,4756/- X 15 Rs.57,71,340/- 6. Loss of consortium Rs.40,000/- each (4 claimants) Rs.1,60,000/- 7. Funeral expenses Rs.15,000/- 8.
