What is the award?
The award is the Collector's written order fixing compensation for each person interested. Under LARR it must reflect fair market value, plus solatium, plus applicable multipliers — and for affected families, rehabilitation entitlements.
Components of compensation

Solatium
100% of market value as additional amount u/s 30.
Assets
Trees, crops, structures valued per rate master / field assessment.
R&R
Schedule II — housing, employment, annuity, subsistence allowance.
