Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that future prospects can be added to the income of self-employed persons as per the guidelines established in National Insurance Company Limited Vs. Pranay Sethi, allowing a 25% enhancement. The Court found a significant discrepancy between the income calculated by the Tribunal and the High Court, ultimately determining a compensation of Rs. 75,00,000 with 9% interest from the date of application. The appeals were disposed of with directions for the respondents to deposit the amount within three months.
