He<\/p>\n<p>had claimed an amount of Rs.2 lakhs as compensation for the<\/p>\n<p>personal injuries suffered by him in a motor accident.         The<\/p>\n<p>accident took place on 09.02.06. The appellant claimed that he<\/p>\n<p>was a Junior Executive in Rashtradeepika drawing a monthly<\/p>\n<p>income of Rs.2,500\/- per mensem. He was an inpatient for a<\/p>\n<p>period of 13 days. He had allegedly suffered disability also as a<\/p>\n<p>result of the accident.\n<\/p>\n<p>     2.    Before the Tribunal, no oral evidence was adduced.<\/p>\n<p>Exts.A1 to A9 were marked. The Tribunal on consideration of<\/p>\n<p>the materials before it, came to the conclusion that the appellant<\/p>\n<p>is entitled for only an amount of Rs.53,000\/- as compensation.<\/p>\n<p>The appellant claims to be aggrieved by the impugned judgment.<\/p>\n<p>Called upon to explain the nature of the challenge against the<\/p>\n<p>impugned award, the learned counsel for the appellant<\/p>\n<p>specifically challenges the amounts awarded under two specific<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">M.A.C.A.No.953 of 2005           2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>heads. The learned counsel contends that for the loss of earning<\/p>\n<p>suffered by him, only an amount of Rs.8,500\/- has been awarded<\/p>\n<p>reckoning that he had lost his earning for 5 months. Monthly<\/p>\n<p>earning was reckoned only at Rs1,700\/-. The counsel contends<\/p>\n<p>that the salary certificate Ext.A8 produced by him clearly shows<\/p>\n<p>that he was getting an income of Rs.2,500\/- per mensem through<\/p>\n<p>his employer.\n<\/p>\n<p>     3.    The counsel further contends that the Tribunal erred<\/p>\n<p>grossly in not granting any amount as compensation for<\/p>\n<p>reduction in earning capacity consequent to the disability<\/p>\n<p>suffered. The Tribunal had awarded only an amount of<\/p>\n<p>Rs.25,000\/- as compensation under the head of loss of amenities<\/p>\n<p>after taking note of Ext.A9 disability certificate which showed<\/p>\n<p>that the appellant had suffered disability to the extent of 26%.<\/p>\n<p>     4.    When the matter came up before this Court, it was<\/p>\n<p>directed that the alleged disability of the appellant be assessed<\/p>\n<p>by the medical board. Accordingly we have now received the<\/p>\n<p>disability certificate which shows that the appellant had suffered<\/p>\n<p>the permanent partial disability to the tune of 16%. The same<\/p>\n<p>can be accepted and there is no dispute on that aspect.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">M.A.C.A.No.953 of 2005          3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>     5.    It had also been revealed from Ext.A9 certificate that<\/p>\n<p>in 2003 when the appellant was examined by the doctor, he was<\/p>\n<p>not continuing his employment with M\/s.Rashtradeepika and he<\/p>\n<p>had secured employment in the Government service as U.D.C.<\/p>\n<p>The Tribunal thought that this was deliberate suppression of<\/p>\n<p>information from the Tribunal.     The learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>appellant accepts that the appellant had subsequently secured<\/p>\n<p>employment in Government service and he is now working as<\/p>\n<p>U.D.C. But the counsel is unable to precisely apprise this Court<\/p>\n<p>of the date on which he ceased to be an employee of<\/p>\n<p>Rashtradeepika and secured the employment in Government<\/p>\n<p>service.\n<\/p>\n<p>     6.    The learned counsel submits that in any view of the<\/p>\n<p>matter in Government service it can safely be assumed that the<\/p>\n<p>monthly earning of the appellant is more than Rs.2,500\/-. Merely<\/p>\n<p>because the appellant had secured employment in Government<\/p>\n<p>service, it cannot be assumed that no compensation is payable<\/p>\n<p>for reduction in earning capacity. It is now established beyond<\/p>\n<p>doubt that the appellant had suffered physical disability of 16%.<\/p>\n<p>Even assuming that there is no reduction in the pay packet, the<\/p>\n<p>Tribunal should not have lost sight of the fact that with the<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">M.A.C.A.No.953 of 2005          4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>disability suffered by him he would be compelled to put in extra<\/p>\n<p>effort to do the same work which he without disability would<\/p>\n<p>have been able to perform. That dimension of the disability must<\/p>\n<p>at any rate have been taken into account even assuming that the<\/p>\n<p>appellant was a U.D.C in the Government service on the date of<\/p>\n<p>the accident. The learned counsel for the appellant submits that<\/p>\n<p>from Government service the appellant will be obliged to retire<\/p>\n<p>on superannuation at the age of 55 years and     this  substantial<\/p>\n<p>disability suffered by him would certainly affect his prospects of<\/p>\n<p>reemployment after superannuation from his service. At least a<\/p>\n<p>reasonable multiplier must have been taken even assuming that<\/p>\n<p>till the age of 55 years the appellant may not suffer any actual<\/p>\n<p>reduction in his earnings.\n<\/p>\n<p>      7.   We find merit in the contention of the learned counsel<\/p>\n<p>for the appellant. We note that Rs.2,500\/- is certified to be the<\/p>\n<p>average earning of commission of the appellant. We are of the<\/p>\n<p>opinion that it would be absolutely safe to reckon the<\/p>\n<p>multiplicand at Rs.2,000\/- and the multiplier at 8 in the facts and<\/p>\n<p>circumstances of the case.      For the loss of amenities, the<\/p>\n<p>appellant has been adequately compensated by the award of the<\/p>\n<p>amount of Rs.25,000\/- by the Tribunal.        We are, in these<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">M.A.C.A.No.953 of 2005           5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>circumstances, satisfied that the further amounts can be<\/p>\n<p>awarded under the heads of loss of earnings and reduction in<\/p>\n<p>earning capacity consequent to physical disability suffered at the<\/p>\n<p>accident. For 5 months&#8217; loss of earnings, the appellant will be<\/p>\n<p>entitled for a further amount of Rs.1,500\/- and for the reduction<\/p>\n<p>in earning capacity consequent to disability, the appellant will be<\/p>\n<p>entitled to an amount of Rs.30,720\/- [ie. Rs.2,000 X 12 X 8 X<\/p>\n<p>16\/100].\n<\/p>\n<p>      8.   The above discussions lead us to the conclusion that<\/p>\n<p>the appellant is entitled for a further amount of Rs.32,220\/-<\/p>\n<p>[30,720 + 1,500] (Rupees Thirty two thousand two hundred and<\/p>\n<p>twenty only) as per the details shown above. The appellant will<\/p>\n<p>also be entitled for interest as already directed by the Tribunal,<\/p>\n<p>for the entire amount, from the date of the petition.<\/p>\n<p>      9.   This appeal is allowed in part to the above extent.<\/p>\n<p>                                    (R.BASANT, JUDGE)<\/p>\n<p>                               (P.R.RAMACHANDRA MENON)<\/p>\n<p>rtr\/-<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kerala High Court Anilkumar @ Ani vs The Managing Director on 13 February, 2009 IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM MACA.No. 953 of 2005() 1.
