Maximum limit of death compensation under Employee compensation Act?

RAMU-HR
Respected seniors
My query is death compensation amount. Is there any maximum limit of death compensation under Employee compensation Act. In one of the case we works out death benefit amount Rs.854280 ( Rs.8000 * 50% * factor 213.57 =854280) + funeral expenses Rs.5000/
Other than that is there any maximum limit for death compensation?
Kindly advise me on this issue
