Headnote | Motor Vehicles Act, 1988: Fatal accident – Compensation – Multiplier – Deceased was aged 54 years on the date of accident – Tribunal applied multiplier of 3 upto the date of superannuation and thereafter multiplier of 8 keeping in view the dependency of life for 10 years – High Court affirmed the order of Tribunal – On appeal, held: In Pranay Sethi, it was held that it is the age of the deceased which is basis for applying suitable multiplier and that the compensation is to be determined keeping in view the future prospects – The future prospects were held to be 15% in respect of a deceased between the age of 50 to 60 years – Thus, the method of determination of compensation applying two multipliers is erroneous and runs counter to the judgment of this Court in Pranay Sethi, affirming the judgment in Sarla Verma – Since the deceased was 54 years of age on the date of incident, therefore, the suitable multiplier would be 11 as per the judgment of this Court in Sarla Verma approved in Pranay Sethi. |
