Madhya Pradesh State Road ... vs Sudhakar & Ors. Etc on 15 April, 1977

54. We have carefully considered the numerous decisions of other High Courts in which deduction was refused. Different sets of principles are applicable for determining compensation and allowing deduction on account of lump sum payment and uncertainties of life. The reasons given in these judgments may be taken into consideration while determining compensation but the same cannot justify refusal of deduction. We feel that in a judicial decision reason should prevail over sentiment. We are of the opinion that these decisions cannot be considered good law as the same do not follow the law laid down by the Supreme Court in M.P. Stare Road Transport Corporation v. Sudhakar, (AIR 1977 SC 1189) (supra). We respectfully agree with the consistent view of the various Division Benches of this Court and hold that a deduction has to be made for lump sum payment and uncertainties of life. In the circumstances of this, the Tribunal should have allowed a deduction of 25%.
