The Managing Director vs Delhi Transport Corporation And ... on 15 March, 2017

18. Mere number of years of experience, at the bar, alone cannot be the sole criteria. But Courts/Tribunals can consider the background of the office, to which, he was attached, appearance and arguments made before the Courts, ability to excel in the profession and thereby, to earn more, in future. On the facts and circumstances of the case, we are of the view that the deceased would have earned Rs.30,000/-, the sum determined by the Tribunal. At the time of accident, deceased was aged 37 years. Addition of 50% of the income under the head future prospects cannot be said to be erroneous, in the light of the decision of this Court, in C.M.A.No.3273 of 2014, dated 13/10/2015, [Royal Sundaram Alliance Insurance Co. Ltd., v. Tmt.Vennila], to which one of us is a party (S.Manikumar,J). It is useful to extract the following paragraphs, "56. As tabulated in the foregoing paragraphs, it should be noted that Consumer Price Index, Gross Domestic Product and Per Capita Income, have increased. One cannot disown the fact that the percentage of those in unorganized sectors is more than the organised sectors. While that be so, would it be appropriate for the Insurance Companies and Transport Corporations, to contend that there is absolutely no chance of any upward revision in wages or salary of those, employed in unorganised sectors or for that matter in the earnings of self-employed. If the contentions of the Insurance Companies and Transport Corporations have to be accepted, whether the self-employed or those engaged in unorganised sectors, can never have any expectation of an event in future, ie., increase in earnings or wages? With the basic study of the statistics, we are of the considered view that the answer should be a clear 'No'. When the Consumer Price Index is applicable uniformally to rich or raff, it cannot be contended that those who are engaged in unorganized sectors or self-employed, would continue to earn the same income, for years together.

The National Insurance Company Ltd vs A.Rajalakshmi on 27 March, 2017

city, urban and rural areas respectively, salary structure ranges between Rs.350 and Rs.785 rupees. Taking note of the materials into account, it can safely be inferred that, the deceased would have earned around Rs.400 to 450 rupees, a day, to maintain the family, consisting of five members. Even though, the evidence of PW2-father reveals that he was working as a watchman and earned Rs.5,000/-, it would be just and reasonable to fix the daily income of the deceased between Rs.400 and Rs.450 rupees. On the basis of the Consumer Price Index and on the basis of the rationale laid down in M/s.Royal Sundaram Alliance Insurance Co. Ltd., Salem & Another vs Vennila & Others reported in CDJ 2015 MHC 6685, we fix the monthly income of the deceased as Rs.13,000/-. Therefore, monthly income of Rs.15,000/- fixed by the Tribunal is reduced to Rs.13,000/-, as it is not substantiated. On the basis of the monthly income arrived, 50% is added towards future prospects. Since the deceased is survived by four dependents, deduction of 1/4th should be made towards his personal and living expenses. As per Ex.P3-Postmortem certificate, deceased was aged 39 years, computation is reworked, by applying multiplier '15'. Accordingly, compensation towards loss of earning is arrived at Rs.26,32,500/- (Rs.14,625/- x 12 x 15).
