HAWA SINGH AND ANOTHER Vs. JAGMEHENDER AND OTHERS

JUDGEMENT

(1.) Cm-6421-Cii-2014

(2.) The present appeal has been preferred by the claimants for the enhancement of the amount of compensation.

(3.) Learned counsel for the appellants-claimants contended that the compensation in this case was to be computed as per the Second Schedule appended to the Act as the claim petition has been filed under Section 163-A of the Act. He contended that the learned Tribunal has wrongly deducted 50% of the income of the deceased towards his personal and living expenses. He further contended that the wrong multiplier has been applied. Thus, the amount of compensation computed by the learned Tribunal is inadequate.
