18.08.2023

JUDGMENT

MFA.Nos.100074/2017, 100075/2017, 100076/2017, 100077/2017, 100078/2017 and MFA.No.100079/2017 are filed by the Insurance Company challenging the judgment and award passed by the Tribunal questioning the liability to pay compensation on the ground that the insurance policy is Act Policy, but the claimants were travelling in the Bajaj tempo. Hence, the risk of inmates in the said Bajaj tempo is not covered under the Act Policy.

¶196

MFA.Nos.103208/2017, 103209/2017, 103210/2017, 103211/2017 and MFA.No.103212/2017 are filed by the claimants for seeking enhancement of compensation.

¶197

18 - NC: 2023:KHC-D:9118 MFA No. 100074 of 2017 C/W MFA No. 100075 of 2017, MFA No. 100076 of 2017, MFA No. 100077 of 2017, MFA No. 100078 of 2017, MFA No. 100079 of 2017, MFA No. 103208 of 2017, MFA No. 103209 of 2017, MFA No. 103210 of 2017, MFA No. 103211 of 2017, MFA No. 103212 of 2017

¶198

It is stated that the claimants were travelling in

¶199

Bajaj tempo bearing reg.No.KA.23/M-4659 as inmates and met with an accident due to rash and negligent driving by the driver of Bajaj tempo and sustained injuries. Therefore, they filed the claim petitions and the Tribunal has awarded compensation by fixing the liability on the Insurance Company to pay compensation to the claimants by indemnifying the owner.

¶200

3. Heard the arguments from both sides and

¶201

perused the records.

¶202

Learned counsel for the Insurance

¶203

Company submitted that, in the present case, the insurance policy in respect of Bajaj tempo is Act Policy/Liability Policy only and the claimants being inmates

¶204

19 - NC: 2023:KHC-D:9118 MFA No. 100074 of 2017 C/W MFA No. 100075 of 2017, MFA No. 100076 of 2017, MFA No. 100077 of 2017, MFA No. 100078 of 2017, MFA No. 100079 of 2017, MFA No. 103208 of 2017, MFA No. 103209 of 2017, MFA No. 103210 of 2017, MFA No. 103211 of 2017, MFA No. 103212 of 2017

¶205

in Bajaj tempo are not third parties. Therefore, the Insurance Company is not liable to indemnify the owner and to pay compensation to the claimants. Therefore, prays for modification of the judgment and award fixing liability on the owner of the Bajaj tempo.

¶206

On the other hand, learned counsel for the

¶207

claimants and owner of the Bajaj tempo have justified the judgment and award passed by the Tribunal and prays to dismiss the appeals filed by the Insurance Company and also prays for enhancement of quantum of compensation.

¶208

In the present case, it is not disputed that

¶209

the claimants had travelled in the Bajaj tempo as inmates. Hence, the claimants are not categorized as third parties. Admittedly, the policy issued in respect of Bajaj tempo is

¶210

20 - NC: 2023:KHC-D:9118 MFA No. 100074 of 2017 C/W MFA No. 100075 of 2017, MFA No. 100076 of 2017, MFA No. 100077 of 2017, MFA No. 100078 of 2017, MFA No. 100079 of 2017, MFA No. 103208 of 2017, MFA No. 103209 of 2017, MFA No. 103210 of 2017, MFA No. 103211 of 2017, MFA No. 103212 of 2017

¶211

Act Policy/Liability only policy. Therefore, where the policy is Act Policy/Liability only policy, the Insurance Company is liable to indemnify only for third parties and others compulsorily covered as per Section 147 of MV Act. The issue is no more res integra in view of the judgment of this

¶212

Court in the case DIVISIONAL MANAGER, UNITED INDIA INS COMPANY LIMITED & OTHERS Vs. SHAMARAYA & OTHERS passed in MFA 31781/2010 & CONNECTED MATTERS DD:22/12/2020. Since, in the present case, it is proved that the insurance policy is Act Policy/Liability only Policy and the claimants being inmates of Bajaj tempo are not third party. Therefore, the Insurance Company is not liable to indemnify the owner of Bajaj tempo. Further there is no evidence that the owner has paid extra/additional premium to cover the risk of inmates also. Therefore, under these facts and

¶213

21 - NC: 2023:KHC-D:9118 MFA No. 100074 of 2017 C/W MFA No. 100075 of 2017, MFA No. 100076 of 2017, MFA No. 100077 of 2017, MFA No. 100078 of 2017, MFA No. 100079 of 2017, MFA No. 103208 of 2017, MFA No. 103209 of 2017, MFA No. 103210 of 2017, MFA No. 103211 of 2017, MFA No. 103212 of 2017

¶214

circumstances and evidence revealed, the Insurance Company is not liable to indemnify the owner and pay compensation to the claimants. The owner of Bajaj tempo bearing reg.No.KA-23/M-4659 has to pay compensation to the claimants. Therefore, the appeals filed by the Insurance Company are liable to be allowed.

¶215

Quantum of compensation:

¶216

MFA.NO.103208/2017 (MVC.No.1306/2014):

¶217

In the present case, from the medical evidence on record, it is proved that the claimant has suffered fracture of 3^rd , 4^th , 5^th and 6^th ribs, right side chest, contusion of left hip, chin and abrasion on chin and left elbow. The above said injuries are grievous in nature. Accordingly, compensation of Rs.30,000/- is awarded under the head injury, pain and suffering.

¶218

22 - NC: 2023:KHC-D:9118 MFA No. 100074 of 2017 C/W MFA No. 100075 of 2017, MFA No. 100076 of 2017, MFA No. 100077 of 2017, MFA No. 100078 of 2017, MFA No. 100079 of 2017, MFA No. 103208 of 2017, MFA No. 103209 of 2017, MFA No. 103210 of 2017, MFA No. 103211 of 2017, MFA No. 103212 of 2017

¶219

The compensation of Rs.22,603/- awarded

¶220

under the head medical expenses is as per the actual bills produced. Hence, it is kept in tact.

¶221

The compensation awarded by the

¶222

Tribunal under the head incidental expenses such as food, nourishment, conveyance & attendant charges are found to be just and proper. Hence, it is kept in tact.

¶223

The doctor has stated that the claimant

¶224

had suffered 30% of physical disability and the Tribunal has considered 9% as functional disability and the same is enhanced. Accordingly, considering the nature of injuries sustained and disability occurred, the functional disability is considered as 12%. The accident was caused in the year 2014, therefore, notional income is taken at Rs.7,500/-

¶225

¶226

NC: 2023:KHC-D:9118 MFA No. 100074 of 2017 C/W MFA No. 100075 of 2017, MFA No. 100076 of 2017, MFA No. 100077 of 2017, MFA No. 100078 of 2017, MFA No. 100079 of 2017, MFA No. 103208 of 2017, MFA No. 103209 of 2017, MFA No. 103210 of 2017, MFA No. 103211 of 2017, MFA No. 103212 of 2017

¶227

p.m. the claimant was aged 70 years, therefore, the appropriate multiplier applicable is “5”. Therefore, compensation under the head loss of earning capacity due to disability is re-assessed and quantified as follows:

¶228

Rs.7,500/- x 12% x 5 x 12=Rs.54,000/-

¶229

Accordingly, compensation of Rs.54,000/- is

¶230

awarded under the head loss of earning capacity due to disability.

¶231

The compensation awarded under the

¶232

head loss of income during laid up period is found to be just and proper. Hence, it is kept in tact.

¶233

The compensation of Rs.25,000/- is awarded under the head loss of amenities as against Rs.10,000/- awarded by the Tribunal.

¶234

24 - NC: 2023:KHC-D:9118 MFA No. 100074 of 2017 C/W MFA No. 100075 of 2017, MFA No. 100076 of 2017, MFA No. 100077 of 2017, MFA No. 100078 of 2017, MFA No. 100079 of 2017, MFA No. 103208 of 2017, MFA No. 103209 of 2017, MFA No. 103210 of 2017, MFA No. 103211 of 2017, MFA No. 103212 of 2017

¶235

13. Thus, in all, the appellant/claimant is entitled to total compensation under various heads as follows:

¶236

1	Injury, pain and suffering	Rs.	30,000/-
2	Medical expenses	Rs.	22,603/-	Kept in tact
3	Incidental expenses such as food, nourishment, conveyance & attendant charges	Rs.	10,000/-	Kept in tact
4	Loss of earning capacity due to disability	Rs.	54,000/-
5	Loss of income during laid up period	Rs.	15,000/-	Kept in tact
6	Loss of amenities	Rs.	25,000/-
	Total	Rs.	1,56,603/-

¶237

The Tribunal has awarded compensation of Rs.1,05,000/-, but the appellant/claimant is entitled to total compensation of Rs.1,56,603/- . Hence, the appellant/claimant is entitled to enhanced compensation of

¶240

Rs.51,603/- (Rs.1,56,603/- - Rs.1,05,000/-). Therefore, the appellant/claimant is entitled to enhanced compensation of Rs.51,603/- along with interest at the rate of 6% per annum from the date of petition till the date of realization, in addition to what has been awarded by the Tribunal.

¶241

IN MFA.No.103209/2017 (MVC.No.1305/2014):

In the present case, the compensation awarded by the Tribunal is correct, just and proper considering the nature of injuries sustained. Hence, there is no need to make enhancement.
