Variava  appearing  on  behalf of respondent Nos.1 and 2.\n<\/p>\n<p>2.\tThe<br \/>\nappellant ?  Insurance Company is challenging Rs.1 lakh for the<br \/>\npurpose of court fees.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.\tThe<br \/>\nappellant ?  Insurance Company has challenged the award passed by<br \/>\nMotor Accident Claims Tribunal, Navsari in Motor Accident Claim<br \/>\nPetition No.141 of 2005 dated 17th August 2006. The Claims<br \/>\nTribunal has awarded Rs.3,10,000\/- with 9% interest in favour of<br \/>\nrespondent claimant.\n<\/p>\n<p>4.\tLearned<br \/>\nadvocate Mr. Parikh raised one contention before this Court that<br \/>\nClaims Tribunal has committed error while applying multiplier looking<br \/>\nto age of deceased 34 and age of claimant 58 and 56. Therefore, he<br \/>\nsubmitted that Claims Tribunal has committed gross error in applying<br \/>\n15 multiplier even though age of claimant is 58\/56. Therefore,<br \/>\naccording to his submission, Claims Tribunal must have to apply 10<br \/>\nmultiplier instead of 15 multiplier. He relied upon recent decision<br \/>\nof Apex Court in case of Bangalore Metropolitan Transport<br \/>\nCorporation v. Sarojamma and Another reported in 2008(5)<br \/>\nACC 142.\n<\/p>\n<p>In the aforesaid decision, Apex Court has considered that how the<br \/>\nmultiplier will apply in case of age of deceased and in case of age<br \/>\nof claimant. The Apex Court has considered that age of claimant as<br \/>\nwell as deceased, whichever is higher, is to be considered.<br \/>\nTherefore, in view of this decision of Apex Court, looking to age of<br \/>\ndeceased 34 years and Claims Tribunal has applied 15 multiplier when<br \/>\nignored the age of claimant Dilipbhai Chhotubhai Vasi, 58 years and<br \/>\nManjulaben Dilipbhai Vasi, 54 years, the deceased was unmarried.\n<\/p>\n<p>5.\tTherefore,<br \/>\nin light of the Apex Court decision, according to my opinion, this<br \/>\naspect has not been properly considered by Claims Tribunal and it is<br \/>\na duty of Claims Tribunal to consider the age of claimant and age of<br \/>\ndeceased whichever is higher while applying multiplier. Looking to<br \/>\nthe facts of this case, looking to age of claimant 58\/56, then,<br \/>\naccording to my opinion, 10 multiplier would be reasonable which is<br \/>\nto be applied. Therefore, compensation for dependency benefit which<br \/>\nhas been considered by Claims Tribunal is to be reduced instead of 15<br \/>\nmultiplier, it would be applied 10 multiplier, then, amount of<br \/>\ndependency benefit is reduced from Rs.2,88,000\/- to Rs.1,92,000\/-.<br \/>\n[See : 2008 ACJ 814 ?  Ramesh Singh and another v. Satbir<br \/>\nSingh and another]<\/p>\n<p>6.\tAccordingly,<br \/>\nafter awarded Rs.20,000\/- for loss of estate and Rs.2,000\/- for<br \/>\nfuneral expenses, it comes to Rs.2,14,000\/-. Therefore, award passed<br \/>\nby Claims Tribunal as referred above is to be modified from<br \/>\n3,10,000\/- to Rs.2,14,000\/- with 9% interest from the date of<br \/>\napplication till the date of realisation.\n<\/p>\n<p>7.\tAccordingly,<br \/>\npresent appeal is partly allowed with no order as to costs.\n<\/p>\n<p>8.\tLearned<br \/>\nadvocate Mr. Parikh submitted that entire awarded amount including<br \/>\ncost and interest has been deposited by Insurance Company before<br \/>\nClaims Tribunal concerned.\n<\/p>\n<p>9.\tLearned<br \/>\nadvocate Mr. Variava submitted that order of disbursement may be<br \/>\npassed in favour of respondent claimant.\n<\/p>\n<p>10.\t\tLearned<br \/>\nadvocate Mr. Parikh also submitted that after passing the order of<br \/>\ndisbursement in favour of claimant, this Court may also pass<br \/>\nappropriate order of refund of remaining amount in favour of<br \/>\nappellant ?  Insurance Company.\n<\/p>\n<p>11.\t\tIn<br \/>\nview of aforesaid submissions made by both the learned advocates, it<br \/>\nis directed to Claims Tribunal calculate the amount of Rs.2,14,000\/-<br \/>\non the basis of 9% interest from the date of application till the<br \/>\ndate of deposit with proportionate cost by Insurance Company and<br \/>\nthen, whatever amount comes, the same shall be disbursed in favour of<br \/>\nrespondent ?  Dilipbhai Chhotubhai Vasi by account payee cheque<br \/>\nafter proper verification immediately. Rest of the amount is to be<br \/>\nrefunded to appellant ?  Oriental Insurance Company Limited by<br \/>\naccount payee cheque immediately.\n<\/p>\n<p>12.\t\tIn<br \/>\nview of the above order passed by this Court as above, no order is<br \/>\nrequired to be passed in Civil Application. Accordingly, Civil<br \/>\nApplication is disposed of.\n<\/p>\n<p>[H.K.\n<\/p>\n<p>RATHOD, J.]<\/p>\n<p>#Dave<\/p>\n<p>\t\t   \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\t\t   Top<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gujarat High Court Oriental vs Dilipbhai on 20 October, 2008 Author: H.K.Rathod,&amp;Nbsp; Gujarat High Court Case Information System Print FA\/526820\/2007 4\/ 4 ORDER IN THE HIGH COURT OF GUJARAT AT AHMEDABAD FIRST APPEAL No. 5268 of 2007 With CIVIL APPLICATION No. 14783 of 2007 In FIRST APPEAL No. 5268 of 2007 ========================================================= ORIENTAL INSURANCE CO.
