Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court set aside the award of the Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal (MACT) regarding compensation under Section 166 of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, due to insufficient consideration of evidence related to the deceased's income. The Court found that while the MACT had applied a notional income, there were documents on record that could provide clarity on the income aspect. The matter was remitted to the MACT for a fresh determination of compensation based on the available documents.
