https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=196126 Deduction towards a deceased person's personal expenses in a motor accident claim depends on the facts of each case and is not governed by any rigid formula. On the special facts, the deceased being a bachelor, the deduction was found excessive and was reduced from one-half to one-third, while the multiplier remained unchanged. The rate of interest was not challenged before the High Court, so no appellate interference was made on that question for the first time in further appeal. The compensation was modified only to that limited extent, and the remaining award was maintained. en-us Fri, 13 Feb 2004 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 20 Nov 2017 12:45:55 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=196126 Deduction towards a deceased person's personal expenses in a motor accident claim depends on the facts of each case and is not governed by any rigid formula.
