1 21 S.B. CIVIL MISC. APPEAL NO.145/2007. Asu Ram & Ors. Vs. Muna Ram & Ors. Date of Order :: 17th January 2007. HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE DINESH MAHESHWARI Mr. G.R. Gora, for the appellants. ... BY THE COURT: For quantification of compensation to be awarded to the husband and children of 30 years old vehicular accident victim Smt. Rukma, said to be earning Rs.6,000/- per month by selling milk and working in agriculture; but for want of any cogent corroborative evidence, the Tribunal has put an estimate on the income of the deceased at Rs.2,000/- per month and after deducting one-third wherefrom and with application of multiplier of 16, has assessed pecuniary loss at Rs.2,56,000/-; and allowing Rs.30,000/- towards non-pecuniary loss and Rs.5,000/- towards funeral expenses, has made the award in the sum of Rs.2,91,000/-; and has also allowed interest @ 7.5% per annum from the date of filing of claim application. Having heard learned counsel for the appellants and having examined the award impugned, this Court is satisfied that the award of compensation so made by the Tribunal remains just, proper and reasonable; and cannot be said to be too low or grossly inadequate so as to warrant interference in this appeal at the instance of the claimants. The appeal fails and is, therefore, dismissed summarily. (DINESH MAHESHWARI), J. 2 //Mohan//
