Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court allowed the change of name of the Complainant from 'Bhushan Steel Ltd' to 'Tata Steel Ltd' following a corporate merger. The Court upheld the NCDRC's order awarding Rs. 13,51,27,000/- to the Insured, rejecting the Insurer's appeal regarding the depreciation rate applied. The Court clarified that the base figure for calculating depreciation should be Rs. 20,09,95,000/- as determined by the NCDRC, affirming the compensation awarded to the Insured.
