Malik’s case (supra) and Krishan Gopal’s case (supra), and also taking into consideration, the guidelines laid down in Smt.Sarla Verma vs. Delhi Transport Corporation and anr., 2009(3) RCR (Civil) 77, the Hon’ble Supreme Court, while considering the death of 12 year old, in a motor vehicular accident, took the notional earnings as Rs.30,000/- inclusive of future prospects and applied the multiplier of ‘15’. The loss of dependency was worked upon to be Rs.4,50,000/- and further addition of Rs.50,000/- was made, under conventional heads and thus, the total compensation was worked upon as Rs.5,00,000/-. 9.
