Heard.
2. The appellant sustained injuries during the course of employment of the respondent and suffered permanent disability to the extent of 35%. The learned Commissioner has also assessed the loss in the earning capacity to the extent of 35%. The petitioner at the relevant time was 49 years of age. His wages were High Court of H.P. 2012:HHC:12317 ::: Downloaded on - 04/11/2026 23:16:54 :::CIS
- 2 - Rs.4600/- per month as per the averments made in the petition.
3. After considering the entire matter, the permanent partial disablement at the age of 49, the relevant factor was rightly applied to the extent of 156.47. Therefore, the learned Commissioner rightly came to the conclusion that the appellant was entitled for the amount of Rs.1,51,150/-.
4. The appellant having felt aggrieved by the impugned order has challenged the award, on the ground that it is on the lower side, fixed arbitrarily on conjecture and surmises and the relevant parameters were not applied, to which, I fail to find out from the record. Since there is no substantial question of law arising in the matter, as such, the appeal fails and is accordingly dismissed in liminie, so also the pending application(s), if any.
