1..   The present appeal arises out of the award dated 28\/7\/1999<\/p>\n
of the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal whereby the Tribunal<\/p>\n
awarded a sum of Rs. 2,00,000\/- along with interest @ 9% per<\/p>\n
annum to the claimant.\n<\/p>\n
FAO No. 628\/2002                                   Page 1 | 9\n<\/p>\n
 2.    The brief conspectus of the facts is as follows:<\/p>\n
3.    The son of the appellant namely Ram Parvesh, aged 22<\/p>\n
years had died untimely in a road accident on 28.7.1999. At the<\/p>\n
time of accident the offending vehicle tempo DL1LC 9533 was<\/p>\n
being driven by the respondent no.1 and the tempo was owned<\/p>\n
by the respondent no.2 at the relevant time.              The offending<\/p>\n
vehicle was insured with the respondent no.3 at the relevant<\/p>\n
time. The accident was caused due to the rash and negligent act<\/p>\n
of the respondent no.1, who drove the offending vehicle in a very<\/p>\n
high speed.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
4.    A claim petition was filed on 28.9.1999 and an award was<\/p>\n
passed      on     17.4.2002.   Aggrieved   with    the    said        award<\/p>\n
enhancement is claimed by way of the present appeal.<\/p>\n
5.    Sh.   Prem      Kumar     Sharma   counsel   for    the   appellant<\/p>\n
contended that the tribunal erred in assessing the income of the<\/p>\n
deceased at Rs. 2400 per month whereas after looking at the<\/p>\n
facts and circumstances of the case the tribunal should have<\/p>\n
assessed the income of the deceased at Rs. 2800 per month. The<\/p>\n
FAO No. 628\/2002                                          Page 2 | 9
\n counsel submitted that the tribunal has erroneously applied the<\/p>\n
multiplier of 3 while computing compensation when according to<\/p>\n
the facts and circumstances of the case multiplier of 17 should<\/p>\n
have been applied. It was urged by the counsel that the tribunal<\/p>\n
erred in not considering future prospects while computing<\/p>\n
compensation as it failed to appreciate that the deceased would<\/p>\n
have earned much more in near future as he was of 22 yrs of age<\/p>\n
only and would have lived for another 30-40 yrs had he not met<\/p>\n
with the accident. It was also alleged by the counsel that the<\/p>\n
tribunal did not consider the fact that due to high rates of<\/p>\n
inflation the deceased would have earned much more in near<\/p>\n
future and the tribunal also failed in appreciating the fact that<\/p>\n
even the minimum wages are revised twice in an year and hence,<\/p>\n
the deceased would have earned much more in his life span. The<\/p>\n
counsel also raised the contention that the rate of interest<\/p>\n
allowed by the tribunal is on the lower side and the tribunal<\/p>\n
should have allowed simple interest @ 15% per annum in place of<\/p>\n
only 9% per annum. The counsel contended that the tribunal has<\/p>\n
erred in not awarding compensation towards loss of love &<\/p>\n
affection, funeral expenses, loss of estate, loss of consortium,<\/p>\n
FAO No. 628\/2002                                   Page 3 | 9
\n mental pain and sufferings and the loss of services, which were<\/p>\n
being rendered by the deceased to the appellants.<\/p>\n
7.    Nobody appeared for the respondents.\n<\/p>\n
8.    I have heard the learned counsel for the appellant and<\/p>\n
perused the record.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
9.    As regards income, the case of the appellant claimant is<\/p>\n
that the deceased was of 22 yrs of age and was working as a<\/p>\n
labourer and was earning Rs. 2800\/- per month. But nothing had<\/p>\n
been brought on record to prove the same. After considering all<\/p>\n
these factors, I am of the view that the tribunal has not erred in<\/p>\n
assessing the income of the deceased as per the rates of<\/p>\n
minimum wages but erred in considering wages notified for an<\/p>\n
unskilled person instead of skilled person at Rs. 2772\/- per<\/p>\n
month.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
10.   It is no more res integra that mere bald assertions regarding<\/p>\n
the income of the deceased are of no help to the claimants in the<\/p>\n
absence of any reliable evidence being brought on record. The<\/p>\n
thumb rule is that in the absence of clear and cogent evidence<\/p>\n
FAO No. 628\/2002                                     Page 4 | 9
\n pertaining to income of the deceased learned Tribunal should<\/p>\n
determine income of the deceased on the basis of the minimum<\/p>\n
wages notified under the Minimum Wages Act.<\/p>\n
11.   Therefore, the award is modified to the said extent.<\/p>\n
12.   Furthermore, it has been the consistent view of this court<\/p>\n
that whenever aid of Minimum Wages Act is taken while<\/p>\n
computing income, then increase in minimum wages should also<\/p>\n
be considered. It is well settled that future prospects are not akin<\/p>\n
to increase in minimum wages. To neutralize increase in cost of<\/p>\n
living and price index, the minimum wages are increased from<\/p>\n
time to time. A perusal of the minimum wages notified under the<\/p>\n
Minimum Wages Act show that to neutralize increase in inflation<\/p>\n
and cost of living, minimum wages virtually double after every 10<\/p>\n
years. For instance, minimum wages of skilled labourers as on<\/p>\n
1.1.1980 was Rs. 320\/- per month and same rose to Rs. 1,083\/-<\/p>\n
per month in the year 1990. Meaning thereby, from year 1980 to<\/p>\n
year 1990, there has been an increase of nearly 238% in the<\/p>\n
minimum wages. Thus, it could safely be assumed that income of<\/p>\n
the deceased would have doubled in the next 10 years.<\/p>\n
FAO No. 628\/2002                                     Page 5 | 9\n<\/p>\n
 13.   Therefore, the tribunal did not err in considering increase in<\/p>\n
minimum wages.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
14.   As regards the contention of the counsel for the appellant<\/p>\n
that the tribunal has erred in applying the multiplier of 3 in the<\/p>\n
facts and circumstances of the case, I feel that the tribunal has<\/p>\n
committed error. This case pertains to the year 1999 and at that<\/p>\n
time II schedule to the Motor Vehicles Act had already been<\/p>\n
brought on the statute books. The age of the deceased at the<\/p>\n
time of the accident was 22 years and he is survived by his aged<\/p>\n
mother aged 48yrs. In the facts of the present case, I am of the<\/p>\n
view that after looking at the age of the claimants and the<\/p>\n
deceased and after taking a balanced view considering the<\/p>\n
multiplier applicable as per the II Schedule to the MV Act, the<\/p>\n
multiplier of 12 shall be applicable.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
15.   As regards the issue of interest that the rate of interest of<\/p>\n
12% p.a. awarded by the tribunal is on the lower side and the<\/p>\n
same should be enhanced to 15% p.a., I feel that the rate of<\/p>\n
interest awarded by the tribunal is just and fair and requires no<\/p>\n
interference. No rate of interest is fixed under Section 171 of the<\/p>\n
FAO No. 628\/2002                                     Page 6 | 9
\n Motor Vehicles Act, 1988. The Interest is compensation for<\/p>\n
forbearance or detention of money and that interest is awarded<\/p>\n
to a party only for being kept out of the money, which ought to<\/p>\n
have been paid to him. Time and again the Hon’ble Supreme<\/p>\n
Court has held that the rate of interest to be awarded should be<\/p>\n
just and fair depending upon the facts and circumstances of the<\/p>\n
case and taking in to consideration relevant factors including<\/p>\n
inflation, policy being adopted by Reserve Bank of India from<\/p>\n
time to time and other economic factors. In the facts and<\/p>\n
circumstances of the case, I do not find any infirmity in the award<\/p>\n
regarding award of interest @ 12% pa by the tribunal and the<\/p>\n
same is not interfered with.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
16.   On the contention regarding that the tribunal has erred in<\/p>\n
not granting adequate compensation towards loss of love &<\/p>\n
affection, funeral expenses and loss of estate, whereas, no<\/p>\n
compensation has been granted towards loss of consortium and<\/p>\n
the loss of services, which were being rendered by the deceased<\/p>\n
to the appellants. In this regard compensation towards loss of<\/p>\n
love and affection is awarded at Rs. 10,000\/-; compensation<\/p>\n
FAO No. 628\/2002                                     Page 7 | 9
\n towards funeral expenses is awarded at Rs. 27,200\/- and<\/p>\n
compensation towards loss of estate is awarded at Rs. 10,000\/-.<\/p>\n
17.   As far as the contention pertaining to the awarding of<\/p>\n
amount towards mental pain and sufferings caused to the<\/p>\n
appellants due to the sudden demise of her only son and the loss<\/p>\n
of services, which were being rendered by the deceased to the<\/p>\n
appellants is concerned, I do not feel inclined to award any<\/p>\n
amount as compensation towards the same as the same are not<\/p>\n
conventional heads of damages.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
18.   On the basis of the discussion, the income of the deceased<\/p>\n
would come to Rs. 4,158\/- after doubling Rs. 2,772\/- to Rs.<\/p>\n
5,544\/- and after taking the mean of them. After making 1\/3 rd<\/p>\n
deductions the monthly loss of dependency comes to Rs. 2,772\/-<\/p>\n
and the annual loss of dependency comes to Rs. 33,264\/- per<\/p>\n
annum and after applying multiplier of 12 it comes to Rs.<\/p>\n
3,99,168\/-. Thus, the total loss of dependency comes to Rs.<\/p>\n
3,99,168\/-. After considering Rs. 47,200\/-, which is granted<\/p>\n
towards non-pecuniary damages, the total compensation comes<\/p>\n
out as Rs. 4,46,368\/-.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
FAO No. 628\/2002                                   Page 8 | 9\n<\/p>\n
 19.   In view of the above discussion, the total compensation is<\/p>\n
enhanced to Rs. 4,46,368\/- from Rs. 2,00,000\/- with interest on<\/p>\n
the differential amount @ 7.5% per annum from the date of filing<\/p>\n
of the petition till realisation and the same shall be paid to the<\/p>\n
appellant by the respondent insurance company as directed by<\/p>\n
the tribunal and within 30 days of this order.<\/p>\n
20.   With the above directions, the present appeal is disposed<\/p>\n
of.\n<\/p>\n
