The respondent No. 2 and 3 i.e., the claimant No.2 and 3 in the original claim petition have expressed no objection today, if the amount arrived at in the settlement is released to their mother who was claimant No.1 in the original claim petition. The parties have settled for a total amount of Rs. 77,06,537/- inclusive of interest. The interest amount which is included in the settled amount is of 27,16,537/-. The TDS shall be deductable from the interest amount.
