Counsel for Respondent :- Sushil Kumar Mehrotra

Hon'ble Saral Srivastava,J.

Heard learned counsel for the appellants and Sri S.K. Mehrotra,

learned counsel for the respondents.

The present appeal has been filed against the award dated

05.08.2020 passed by MACT/District Judge, Firozabad in

MACP No.70 of 2017 for enhancement of compensation.

Challenging the award, learned counsel for the appellants has

contended that the accident had taken place on 28.07.2016 and

the deceased was engaged in a private company and it is

common knowledge that in the year 2016, the income of an

employee in a private company was not less than Rs.200/- per

day and thus, the Tribunal should have taken Rs.6,000/- per

month as income of the deceased instead of Rs.4500/- per

month. In support of its case, learned counsel for the appellant

has relied upon the judgement of the Apex Court in the case of

Magma General Insurance Company Ltd. Vs. Nanu Ram

alias Chuhru Ram and Others,
