Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision regarding compensation under the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, specifically referencing Section 163A. The Court affirmed that the assessment of compensation based on notional income of a non-earning person was appropriate given the lack of convincing evidence of actual income from the appellant's agricultural land. The appeal was dismissed, confirming the High Court's enhancement of compensation by Rs.95,000/- with interest.
