By the impugned award, against a claim of Rs.30,50,000/-, learned Tribunal has awarded compensation of Rs.12,75,622/- in favour of the appellants /claimants. 2. Learned counsel for the appellants submits that the amount of compensation is on the lower side, therefore, it requires suitable enhancement. 3. Heard learned counsel for the appellant. 4. The deceased was aged about 22 years and according to pleadings of the appellants / claimants, the deceased was earning Rs.8,000/- per month working as a Motor Mechanic. Except bald oral statement, no documentary evidence in that regard has been filed. The incident occurred on 19/02/2015.

The finding appears to be based upon proper appreciation of evidence and cannot be said to be contrary to the evidence. The compensation awarded is just.
