ORDER : This petition coming on for orders upon perusing the petition and the affidavit filed in support thereof and upon hearing the arguments of M/S.M.KANNAN, Advocate for the petitioner and of Mr.V.Sakthivel, Advocate for R1, the court made the following order:- (Order of the Court was made by K.RAVICHANDRABAABU.,J ) This appeal is filed challenging the quantum. 2.The contention of the Insurance Company is that the Tribunal below is not justified in taking 80% as loss of income to arrive at the quantum of compensation. It is also contended that towards the medical bill, a sum of Rs.13,88,413/- was awarded, out of which, Rs.10,00,000/- towards physiotherapy alone. Therefore, it is contended that the quantum of compensation awarded by the Tribunal below is required to be reconsidered.

3.The above contentions of the appellant have to be considered and decided, while hearing the main appeal. However, considering the fact that the appellant has deposited the entire award amount with accrued interest, we are of the view that the petitioner/claimant may be permitted to withdraw 35% of the amount so deposited with accrued interest without prejudice to the contention of the either parties. Accordingly, this civil miscellaneous petition is ordered permitting the petitioner to withdraw 35% of the amount deposited.
