I agree with S/Shri Ganesan and Makkad ji. Group Insurance by employer for his employees has nothing to do with the comensation under the MV Act.

Simply No. No deduction of workman compansation amount can be deducted from MACT.

Dear Disha,
Say for example one is having LIC benefit would it be deducted from MACT amount.No,except that of personal accident insurance and if one gets any compensation under it also the said amount willbe deducted from the MACT amount at the time of award.

DISHA D. SHAH (Expert) 04 September 2011
no personal accident amount will be claimed in consumer court and not deduct in mact
any type of this arguments of insurance advocate is not eligible at all
