Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice A.N. Jindal Present: Mr. M.S. Tewatia, Advocate for the appellants. A.N. Jindal, J This appeal for enhancement, directed against the award dated 25.8.2008 passed by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Faridabad, is accompanied by an application for condonation of 71 days' delay in filing the same. Heard. The deceased was 42 years old and suitable multiplier of 15 has been applied in this case and ultimately, the claimants have been awarded a sum of Rs.7,72,400/- as compensation. The award appears to be quite reasonable and adequate. Even otherwise the appeal is barred by 71 days' delay and there are no sufficient grounds to condone the delay. Consequently, the application for condonation of delay is dismissed. Resultantly, the appeal also fails. August 19, 2009 (A.N. Jindal) deepak Judge
