Future prospects -- Amount of Rs.50,082/- is to be paid to the legal heirs under the EFB Scheme only till date of retirement of the deceased for a period of about 7 years – This payment will cease thereafter – Since the claimants are getting quite an advantage, MACT was right in not taking into consideration the future prospects in the peculiar facts and circumstances of the case -- Payment of the amount under the EFB Scheme more than offsets the loss of future prospects – This would be ‘just’ compensation.
