THE TRIBUNAL HAD ERRONEOUSLY ASSUMED THAT THE DEATH MAY HAVE OCCURRED DUE TO THE QUADRIPLEGIC CONDITION OF THE WOMAN, THE COMPANY CLAIMED. THE HIGH COURT, HOWEVER, REFUSED TO ACCEPT THIS CONTENTION.

- Prateem Rohanekar

MUMBAI: The Bombay high court has upheld a compensation of ₹62.2 lakh awarded by the Motor Accidents Claim Tribunal (MACT), Mumbai, to the family of Charu Khandal, a former character animator at Red Chillies Entertainment—Shah Rukh Khan's production house—who sustained severe spinal injuries in a 2012 road accident and died nearly five years later.

A bench of justices Girish Kulkarni and Advait Sethna on May 9 said it did not find any perversity, illegality or irregularity in the November 2020 order passed by a tribunal and refused to quash it.

The bench dismissed the petition filed by Cholamandalam MS General Insurance Co. Ltd, challenging the tribunal's order.

Khandal's family, after the accident, had filed a claim for compensation before the Motor Accident Claim Tribunal in June 2014, and the tribunal awarded a compensation of ₹62 lakh in November 2020.
