Mr. Gandhi, learned counsel appearing for the applicant would submit that this Court assessed the annual income of the deceased at Rs. 1,33,224/- and added 40% of income towards future prospects. However, after deducting one-fourth towards personal and living expenses, the annual dependency was mentioned as Rs.1,22,864/- instead of Rs.99,918/-.Thus, the said part of the order requires modification. 4. Heard. 5. Having considered the submissions made by Mr. Gandhi and on perusal of the order dated 31.10.2025, this Court finds that the figure of Rs. 1,22,864/- is an apparent arithmetical error.
