The amount of compensation is not payable to the workman directly. It is generally deposited alongwith the prescribed statement, with the Commissioner who will then pay it to the workman.

- in case of death of the employee;
- in case of lump sum compensation payable to a woman or a minor or a person of unsound mind or whose entitlement to the compensation is in dispute or a person under a legal disability.
Besides, compensation of Rs. 10 or more may be deposited with the Commissioner on behalf of the person entitled thereto.
The receipt of deposit with the Commissioner shall be a sufficient proof of discharge of the employer's liability.
