PYARE LAL vs STATE OF HARYANA .

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred by not considering the revised pension of late Suraj Bhan, which was increased from Rs.3,228/- to Rs.4,556/- per month effective January 1, 1996, when determining compensation. The Court established that the dependency should be fixed at Rs.2,200/- per month, leading to a total compensation of Rs.2,90,400/- when applying a multiplier of 11. The appeal was partially allowed, modifying the previous orders and awarding the stated compensation along with interest at 12% per annum from the date of filing.
