Heard
\n\tlearned Advocate Mr. Trilok J. Patel for appellants original
\n\tclaimants  and learned Advocate Mr. SS Gade for respondent No. 3.\n<\/p>\n
Through
\n\tthis appeal, appellants original claimants have challenged judgment
\n\tand award made by Claims Tribunal (Auxi.) at Baroda in MACP No. 252
\n\tof 1979 dated 10.3.1981 wherein claims tribunal has awarded
\n\tcompensation of Rs.1,21,670.00 in favour of claimants. In this
\n\tappeal, while challenging said award, claimants are praying for
\n\tenhancing it by Rs.1,00,000.00 and have paid court fees on
\n\tRs.1,00,000.00 in this appeal.\n<\/p>\n
Learned
\n\tAdvocate Mr. Patel for appellants has submitted that claims tribunal
\n\thas committed gross error while considering income of deceased from
\n\ttwo sources, one from M\/s. Kaduji & Co. and another from M\/s.
\n\tMahudawala & Co.. He submitted that yearly income from both the
\n\tpartnership firm received by deceased as per assessment order of
\n\t1973 and 1974 comes to Rs.7898.00 in Mahudawala and Co. and
\n\tRs.18499.00 in M\/s. Kaduji & Co., therefore, total amount comes
\n\tto Rs.26,397.00 but instead of that, claims tribunal has taken datum
\n\tfigure of Rs.10000.00 being income per year of deceased, therefore,
\n\tlearned advocate Mr. Patel submitted that if datum figure is to be
\n\ttaken into account, then, it comes to 50% of total of both amount
\n\tbut that has not been done by claims tribunal and in doing so,
\n\tclaims tribunal has committed gross error in assessing annual income
\n\tof deceased. He submitted that claims tribunal has committed an
\n\terror in not awarding any amount for obsequial  ceremony as against
\n\tdemand made by claimants as discussed in paragraph 16. As per his
\n\tsubmission, claims tribunal has also erred in not awarding any
\n\tamount for pain, shock and suffering as well as medical treatment
\n\tas well as prescriptions for medicines Exh. 45 to 50. Ex,44 is the
\n\tprescription of Dr. HV Raval, Assistant Professor of Psychiatric,
\n\tMedical college, SSG Hospital, Baroda. Claims Tribunal has believed
\n\tthat it is true that applicant no.1 has incurred expenses for her
\n\ttreatment, there is no evidence what type of ailment has been
\n\tdeveloped. Claims tribunal has observed that it cannot be gathered
\n\tfrom prescriptions  and neither Dr. Khurana nor Dr. Raval has been
\n\texamined, no medical certificate of either of doctor has been
\n\tproduced and, therefore, claimants are not entitled for any
\n\tcompensation on that count. Learned Advocate Mr. Patel submitted
\n\tthat claims tribunal has committed gross error in not awarding any
\n\tamount of compensation in that regard and award of claims tribunal
\n\tis required to be enhanced because at the time of death, deceased
\n\twas aged 32 years.\n<\/p>\n
Learned
\n\tAdvocate Mr. SS Gade for respondent NO.3 has seriously opposed
\n\tsubmissions made by learned Advocate Mr. Patel for appellants and
\n\tsubmitted that claims tribunal has rightly examined matter and datum
\n\tfigure has also been rightly assessed for considering annual income
\n\tof deceased and claims tribunal has not committed any error in
\n\tmaking award in question and, therefore, award in question does not
\n\trequire any interference of this Court.\n<\/p>\n
I
\n\thave considered submissions made by learned advocates for both
\n\tsides. I have perused impugned award made by claims tribunal. I have
\n\tconsidered para 13, 14, 16, 17 and 18 of award in particular  while
\n\tconsidering income from two sources means two companies for same
\n\tperiod, total income of which comes to Rs.26,397.00 but instead of
\n\tthat, without any base or reason, claims tribunal has held that
\n\tincome of deceased can be fixed at Rs.10,000.00 per year as datum
\n\tfigure. Then, claims tribunal applied multiplier of 15 looking to
\n\tage of deceased, 32 years, at the time of accident. Para 13, 14, 16,
\n\t17 and 18 of award are reproduced as under:\n<\/p>\n
\t?S13.\tFrom
\n\tthe above evidence, it is borne out that the income of the deceased
\n\tduring the last years was much less and particularly when deceased
\n\twas a partner in Mahudawala & Company in comparision to his
\n\tincome while he was a partner of Kaduji & Company in earlier
\n\tyears. It is borne out from the evidence of witness Ochhavalal
\n\tChhaganlal a clerk in the firm of M\/s. Kaduji & Company examined
\n\tat Exh.5 1 that the said firm was managed by the deceased while he
\n\twas a partner of the same. It is borne out from the evidence of
\n\tMohmmedsalim Ismailbhai Partner of Mahudawala & Company examined
\n\tat Exh. 81 that the deceased was the main managing partner and that
\n\tgradually there was an increase in the income of the firm every
\n\tyear. Lastly the income of the deceased of his share from the income
\n\tof the partnership firm of Mahudawala & Company was Rs.7898\/-
\n\twhile for the assessment year 1973-74 the income of the deceased as
\n\ta partner of Kaduji & Company was Rs.18499\/-. Looking to the
\n\tabove stated circumstances the income of the deceased can be fixed
\n\tat Rs.10,000.00 per year as the datum figure.\n<\/p>\n
\t14.\tFrom
\n\tthe above datum figure one unit comes to Rs.1111\/-. The proper
\n\tmultiple to be applied in the present case would be 15 since the age
\n\tof the deceased was 32 years at the time of accident. In the case of
\n\tUnion Cooperative Insurance Company Limited Vs. Bharatiben reported
\n\tin 19 GLR at page 620[820] the deceased was aged 32 years and
\n\tmultiple of 15 was adopted. According to this calculation, deduction
\n\ttwo units of the deceased each of the major applicants Nos. 1,3 and
\n\t4 would be each entitled to Rs.33334.00 and the minor applicant no.2
\n\twould be entitled to Rs.16667.00. To this compensation of Rs.5000.00
\n\ttowards loss of expectation of life has to be added as approved in
\n\tcase of  Kjodhabhai Hirji [Khodabhai Bhagwanbhai & Ors. v. Hirji
\n\tTapu & Anr.<\/a> ] reported in 21 GLR at page 187. Therefore, each of
\n\tthe major applicants no.1,3 and 4 are entitled to Rs.1428.60,
\n\tRs.714.30 paise on this head.\n<\/p>\n
\t16.The
\n\tclaimants have claimed compensation on the head of obsequiel
\n\tceremonies. During the course o argument, Rs.2000\/- are claimed on
\n\tthis head. If anything certain in this life is the death. Deceased
\n\twas to die one day or the other. In that case also, expenses would
\n\thave been incurred for obsequiel ceremonies. The applicants are
\n\ttherefore not entitled to any compensation on this head.\n<\/p>\n
\t17.\tThe
\n\tclaimants have claimed compensation on the head of pain, shock and
\n\tsufferings on account of the death of the deceased and in particular
\n\tby applicant NO.1, the widow. She has deposed that she is unable to
\n\tbear the loss of her husband. On account of the death of her
\n\thusband, she has suffered a shock and she is not keeping well.  She
\n\twas admitted as indoor patient in the SSG Hospital, Baroda for 15
\n\tdays. She was taking the treatment of Dr. Khurana and still the
\n\ttreatment is continued. She has deposed that her mind has become
\n\tweak and some times, she becomes unconscious. On this point, Shri
\n\tGandhi LA for the applicant relied upon aforesaid Bharatiben’s case
\n\t(19 GLR at page 820). In this case, it has been held that;\n<\/p>\n
\t??Damages
\n\tfor nervous shock caused by the sight of an accident to a close
\n\trelative can be awarded. However, such damages cannot be a warded
\n\tfor grief or sorrow caused by the death of a close relative because
\n\tin any event such death would have caused much sorrow and mourning.
\n\tIn other words, to claim damages on account of the mental shock and
\n\tsufferings there must be positive evidence showing that there is
\n\tsomething more than mere sorrow or grief or mourning and that
\n\tadditional or extra element has aken the form of any recognizable
\n\tpaychiatric illness which is attributable and really wholly
\n\tattributable to the misfortune of having actually witnessed
\n\taccident.It is imporotant to note that damages on this head even if
\n\tadmissible, they can be given only when the close relative of the
\n\tdec eased has actually witnessed accident. In other words, the
\n\taccident has taken place within his her sight. ??\n<\/p>\n
\tNow
\n\tturning to the facts of this case it is very clear that neither
\n\tapplicant no.1 nor rrest of the applicants have witnessed the actual
\n\taccident. Therefore, neither applicant No.1 nor rest of the
\n\tapplicants are entitled to any compensation on this head.\n<\/p>\n
\t18.\tNo
\n\tdoubt, from the evidence on record, it is borne out that applicant
\n\thas taken the treatment of Dr.Khurana Professor of
\n\tPsychiatric,Medical College, SSG Hospital, Baroda vide prescriptions
\n\tof the medicine at Exh. 45 to 50. Ex.44 is the prescription of Dr.
\n\tHV Raval, Asstt. Professor of Psychiatric Medical College, SSG
\n\tHospital Baroda.It is true, the applicant no.1 has incurred expenses
\n\tfor her treatment. There is no evidence what type of ailment has
\n\tdeveloped. It cannot be gathered from the prescription Neither Dr.
\n\tKhurana nor Dr. Raval has been examined. NO medical certificate of
\n\teither of the doctor has been produced. The result is that the
\n\tapplicants Nos.1 to 4 are entitled to compensation as aforesaid
\n\tonly. They are entitled to get the same from all the opponents who
\n\tare jointly and severally liable to pay the same. Point NO.2 is
\n\tanswered accordingly.??\n<\/p>\n
According
\n\tto my opinion, claims tribunal has committed gross error in not
\n\tconsidering future prospects of a young man of 32 years while
\n\tassessing income from two sources as aforesaid. Claims tribunal has
\n\talso committed an error in not considering future prospects of
\n\tdeceased and straightway considering Rs.10,000.00 as annual income
\n\tbeing datum figure and multiplier of 15 and therefore, according to
\n\tmy opinion, considering impugned award as a whole, claims tribunal
\n\thas committed gross error in not properly calculating amount of
\n\tcompensation and also committed an error in not awarding any amount
\n\tfor shock, pains and suffering  and obsequial ceremony and expenses
\n\tfor treatment and medicines. Claims tribunal has also committed an
\n\terror in not considering future prospects. These are the heads on
\n\twhich claims tribunal has not applied mind properly. Therefore,
\n\ttotal compensation of  Rs.1,21,670.00 awarded by claims tribunal is
\n\tvery much on its lower side and therefore, it is according to my
\n\topinion compensation awarded by claims tribunal is unjust and
\n\tunreasonable as it is on lower side, therefore, compensation awarded
\n\tby claims tribunal is required to be enhanced by this court as
\n\tbasically claims tribunal has committed gross error in calculating
\n\tand assessing compensation on different heads and, therefore, amount
\n\tawarded by claims tribunal on different heads cannot be considered
\n\tto be just, reasonable and proper. Therefore, considering datum
\n\tfigure of annual income of Rs.10,000.00 fixed by claims tribunal as
\n\tagainst total income received by deceased from two partnership firms
\n\t   as per assessment order for the year 1973 and 1974 and applying
\n\tmultiplier of 15 considering age of deceased and also considering
\n\tfuture prospects of deceased aged about 32 years and also
\n\tconsidering fact that claims tribunal has awarded no compensation
\n\tfor pains,shock and suffering, obsequial ceremony, treatment and
\n\texpenses for medicines etc. as discussed above, according to my
\n\topinion, it would be just and proper if award of compensation made
\n\tby claims tribunal is enhanced by Rs.1,00,000.00, then,total
\n\tcompensation would come to Rs.2,21,670 [Rs.1,21,670 awarded by
\n\tclaims tribunal+ Rs.1,00,000 enhanced in this appeal], that would
\n\tmet ends of justice considering award as a whole and same would be,
\n\taccording to my opinion, a just, reasonable  and proper
\n\tcompensation. Therefore, this appeal is required to be allowed as
\n\tprayed for.\n<\/p>\n
Accordingly,
\n\tthis appeal is allowed as prayed for. Award made by Claims Tribunal
\n\t(Auxi.) at Baroda in MACP No. 252 of 1979 dated 10.3.1981 is further
\n\tenhanced by Rs.1,00,000.00 (Rupees one lac only) and respondents are
\n\tjointly and severally directed to pay said enhanced amount of
\n\tcompensation to appellants with interest thereon at 6 per cent per
\n\tannum from date of application till date of realization. Respondents
\n\tare directed to pay said enhanced amount of compensation to
\n\tappellants original claimants with interest  thereon at 6 per cent
\n\tper annum from date of application till date of realization within
\n\tthree months from date of receipt of copy of this order. There is no
\n\torder as to costs.\n<\/p>\n
