Mr. M. Talukdar, learned counsel appears on behalf of the claimant. Also Mr. R. Goswami, learned counsel appears on behalf of the Sriram General Insurance Co. Ltd.
Although the claimant could not appear today, the matter is settled as per pre- settlement note between the claimant and the Sriram General Insurance Company Ltd., at a total amount of Rs. 17,43,600/- (Rupees Seventeen Lakh Forty Three Thousand Six Hundred only) out of which an amount of Rs. 11,15,322/- (Rupees Page No.# 3/3
Eleven Lakh Fifteen Thousand Three Hundred Twenty Two only) had already been paid to the claimant. The pre-settlement note is duly signed by the claimant.
Therefore, the Insurance Company is directed to deposit the balance amount of Rs. 6,25,278/- (Rupees Six Lakh Twenty Five Thousand Two Hundred Seventy Eight) before the MACT, Silchar, Cachar within a period of 30 days from today, which shall be disbursed to the claimant Nos. 1, 2 & 4 upon furnishing of proper address, identification and bank account details to be submitted before the Tribunal. The Tribunal in its award dated 29.09.2018 earlier held that the claimant No. 3 is not to be considered as dependent as per Paragraph-13 of the Judgment.
The Insurance Company is permitted to withdraw the Statutory Deposit made before this Court.
The pre-settlement note is kept as a part of the case record. In view of above settlement, the MAC Appeal stands disposed of.
