HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR MEDHI
ORDER
05-04-2021 Heard Shri D. Mondal, learned counsel for the applicant/appellant who has filed this application for correction of a typographical error in the judgment dated 03.03.2020. It is pointed out that by the aforesaid judgment dated 03.03.2020 passed in the appeal, though the award was modified, the direction for payment of interest @7.5% was not touched upon and the same was directed to be calculated from the date of filing of the claim as directed earlier by the Tribunal. However, while typing out the said judgment, instead of claim petition, appeal has been typed out.
Ms. M. Choudhury, learned counsel for the Insurance Company fairly submits that the same is a trivial error which can be rectified.
In view of the above, the expression "appeal" appearing in paragraph 31 of the aforesaid judgment would be replaced by the expression "claim petition". It is clarified that the interest of 7.5% per annum upon the awarded amount has to be paid from the date of the filing of the claim petition.
IA stands disposed of.
