The learned Counsel appearing for the petitioner would submit that the order of pay and recovery passed by the tribunal is un- sustainable in view of the amendment to Section 149 of the Motor Vehicles Act. The learned counsel also submits that after amendment to Motor Vehicles Act, the Tribunal has no power to order pay and recovery in case of violation of policy conditions. The issue raised by the petitioner in this civil revision petition is no longer res integra. I had an occasion to consider this issue in SBI General Insurance Company Limited Vs. Muthulakshmi and others reported in 2025:MHC:991, wherein it was held that even after amendment to Motor Vehicles Act, in the year 2019, the Tribunal can order pay and recovery. The said view was affirmed by a Division Bench of this Court in Branch Manager, ICICI Lombard General Insurance Company Vs. Mariyapushpam and 2/4 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis C.R.P.(PD)(MD)No.3768 of 2025 others reported in 2026:MHC:179. Since the issue raised by the petitioner is already settled by the Division Bench of this Court, the petitioner has not made out any case to interfere with the award passed by the Tribunal. 3. Accordingly, the Civil Division petition stands dismissed. No costs. Consequently, the connected civil miscellaneous petition is closed. 15.07.2026 NCC : Yes / No Index : Yes / No vsm To 1.
