found that though Ext.C1 Disability Certificate was to the effect that he suffered disability of 60%, his functional disability would have been more than that. So the Tribunal fixed his functional disability as 75%. The Insurer did not challenge the finding of the Tribunal that the appellant in MACA No.4608 of 2019 suffered functional disability of 75%. Now the grievance of the appellant is that he was a granite worker and he cannot do that job any more. But even then the Tribunal did not award enhancement towards future prospects. It is true that since he suffered functional disability of 75%, the Tribunal ought to have awarded an addition for future prospects also. Since he was aged only 25, with a self employment, he was eligible to get 40% hike towards future prospects. If so, he was eligible to get his monthly income fixed @ Rs.16,800/(12,000 + 40%). The multiplier applicable was 18 as he was aged only 25. So, on re-calculating the compensation for permanent disability, taking his monthly income @ Rs.16,800/-, it will be Rs.27,21,600/- (16,800 X 12 X 18 X 75 / 100). Since he was already paid Rs.19,44,000/- by the Tribunal, he is eligible to get the balance amount of Rs.7,77,600/as enhanced compensation for permanent disability.
