Supreme Court enhances compensation for bus accident victim Prahlad Sahai from ₹13.02 lakh to ₹36.20 lakh over High Court award.
Court awards ₹26 lakh specifically for prosthetic limb purchase and maintenance, setting precedent for future compensation calculations.
Ruling establishes standardized compensation methodology for prosthetic limbs based on 5-year replacement cycles and 70-year life expectancy.
Court rejects government's low prosthetic limb rates, affirming claimant's right to reasonable compensation for private procurement.
