Saruyaben Harisingbhai Bilwal vs Ataullahkhan Mehtabkhan Lalkhan ... on 21 December, 2000

In the case of New India Assurance Co. Ltd. v. Kala Devi & Ors., reported in 1996 ACJ 16, the Supreme Court had considered the case of enhancement in the compensation in view of the revision of the pay-scales of the post which was held by the deceased on the basis of the Third Pay Commission. In that case, the High Court took into account the revision of pay-scales by Third Pay Commission, and awarded a sum of Rs. 1,25,000/- as compensation. The Supreme Court observed in the end of this decision that having regard to the revised pay-scales of the post held by the deceased, his age and longevity of life as well as all other facts and circumstances of the case, there was no justification to interfere with the quantum of compensation awarded by the High Court and accordingly the appeal against the decision of the High Court was dismissed. In any view of the matter, the claimants in this case are at least entitled to get compensation by getting the pay of the deceased computed on the basis of the average of the salary which the deceased was getting at the time of accident and as has been certified by the Collector, Kheda, at Exh. 57 at the rate of Rs. 6,717/- p.m. in December, 1997. This average comes out to Rs. 4,025-50 as explained above, and therefore, we find that the monthly income of the deceased for the purpose of granting compensation should have been taken to be Rs. 4,025-50 per month instead of Rs. 1,500/- per month.
