NO. 233 OF 2003 = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 1st day of February, 2008. O R D E R This revision petition is preferred against the award of the Addl. District Judge, North Paravur in O.P.(Ele.)48/93 whereby the Court below has awarded an additional compensation of Rs.31,963/- with 6% interest. I have perused the award. As per the award it is seen that according to the petitioner 41 rubber trees were cut and removed and they were aged about 10 years, but a statement by the K.S.E.B. would show only 40 trees. The Court calculated the income from that tree at 75 gms. per day and fixed the number of tapping days per year at 125 and therefore calculated the gross yield from a tree at 9.375 kg. per year. The Court deducted the expenses and calculated the net yield from a tree at 5.273 kg. The rate per kilogram of rubber was fixed at Rs.20.63 and age for a further period of 20 years and applied a multiplier of 8.772 and fixed the value at Rs.38,169.42 and therefore awarded an additional compensation of Rs.26,619.77 for the trees cut. CRP NO. 233 of 2003 -:2:- So far as the diminution in land value is concerned the Court considered the matter and awarded Rs.5,343.60 as diminution in land value. Therefore I cannot hold that the Court below has not applied its mind while passing the award. I do not find any irregularity or illegality in the order passed and therefore the C.R.P. lacks merit and it is dismissed. M.N. KRISHNAN, JUDGE. ul/- CRP NO. 233 of 2003 -:3:- M.N.
