IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH FAO No.298 of 2009 (O&M) Date of decision: December 11, 2009. National Insurance Co. Ltd. ...Appellant(s) v. Bhim Singh & Ors. ...Respondent(s) CORAM:HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAKESH KUMAR GARG Present: Shri Harsh Aggarwal, Advocate, for the appellant. Shri Parminder Singh, Advocate, for respondents No.1 & 2. Rakesh Kumar Garg, J. (Oral): This is insurer's appeal challenging the impugned award dated 14.8.2008 passed by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Karnal granting a sum of Rs.4,41,500/- (Rs.4,32,000/- as compensation + Rs.9500/- as funeral expenses, etc.) to the respondent-claimants. The only challenge in this appeal filed by the insurer is with regard to the quantum of compensation, as according to the learned counsel for the appellant, there are arithmetical errors while calculating the compensation. Admittedly, vide order dated 3.11.2006, application filed by the appellant under section 170 of the Motor Vehicles Act was rejected. In view of the aforesaid fact, the appeal filed on behalf of the insurer challenging the assessment of compensation is not maintainable. However, keeping in view the fact that the learned counsel has only challenged the calculations done by the Tribunal, I deem it appropriate to permit the appellant to move necessary application before the Tribunal for making necessary corrections in the calculations for determining the compensation as assessed. With aforesaid liberty, this appeal is ordered to be dismissed. December 11, 2009. [ Rakesh Kumar Garg ] kadyan Judge
