Partly granted
The Veteran's PTSD was granted a rating of 50 percent from August 30, 2018 to April 21, 2023, but the claim for an increased rating in excess of 70 percent from April 11, 2024 onwards was denied.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's PTSD symptoms did not meet the criteria for a higher rating due to their severity and impact on his daily life during the relevant periods.
