The challenge in the appeal pertains to quantum of compensation only. 4. Learned counsel for the appellant submits that the learned Tribunal has failed to award adequate compensation for loss of future prospects of the deceased as 2 he was Government Servant and was of 36 years old at the time of accident. 5. Per contra, learned counsel for the respondents supported the judgment of the Tribunal and submitted that the learned Tribunal has taken into consideration evidence adduced during inquiry and has awarded adequate compensation and calls for no interference. It is further submitted that dependents of deceased have been adequately compensated in view of the fact that they have been awarded sum of Rs.7,26,000/- along with interest and amount awarded can fetch an interest equivalent to the amount the deceased was getting at the time of death. It is also submitted that the amount for loss of future prospects has been taken into consideration and the appellants have been awarded Rs.5500/- in place of Rs.4608/- as monthly pay while computing the compensation. 6. After hearing the rival contentions, and going through the award as also record of the case, it is revealed that as submitted by learned counsel for the respondent- 3 Company, the increase in the basic pay has been considered by the Tribunal as against the future prospects.
