Heard Mr. P K Munir, the learned counsel appearing for the applicants. Also heard Ms. M Choudhury, the learned Standing Counsel appearing for the Insurance Company. 2. This application has been filed praying for modification of the order dated 07.09.2023 passed by this Court in MAC Appeal No.317/2016. 3. The Tribunal earlier directed payment of interest @ 8% per annum over the amount directed to be paid by the Insurance Company. Later on, this Court enhanced the compensation amount to ₹47,50,000/- (Rupees forty seven lakh fifty thousand), but nothing was mentioned about the interest. 4.
I have considered the submissions made by the learned counsel of both sides. I have also gone through the objection filed by the Insurance Company. 5. It is hereby directed that the Insurance Company shall pay interest @ 6% per annum over the amount enhanced by this Court till full and final payment. 6. With the aforesaid direction, this IA stands disposed of accordingly. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
