The arbitral award of an earlier case was challenged by the respondent under Section 34 of the Act of 1996 in the commercial court. The petitioner moved an application under Section 34(4) of the Act of 1996 to adjourn the proceedings in the application filed by the respondent and asked to give an opportunity to the Arbitral Tribunal to resume the arbitral proceedings or to take such other action as in the opinion of the Arbitral Tribunal was required to eliminate the grounds for setting aside the arbitral award.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">The main grounds raised by the petitioner in the application filed are as under:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>\n<p>The award of the Arbitral Tribunal omitted the adjudication on every issue to give findings on the issue separately.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Omitted to explain the words where &#8220;<i>bare minimum principles of natural justice<\/i>&#8221; and in &#8220;<i>hyper technical ground<\/i>&#8221; while setting aside the impugned termination.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Omitted the reasons for providing INR Rs.4,80,00,000\/- against loss of business, reputation &amp; goodwill and omitted to assign explanation for setting aside the counter claim of the respondent-applicant in the appeal.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>The Arbitral Tribunal was required to be given an opportunity to eliminate the grounds for setting aside the award.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>The bare perusal of the award showed that findings do not discuss and give the reasoning as to why the principles of natural justice were not followed and why the termination of the order was termed as hyper technical ground.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>All the conditions as per the law laid down by Supreme Court in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/57K1R8nE\"><span class=\"Hyperlink\"><i>I-Pay Clearing Services Private Limited v.

If there is an inherent lack of jurisdiction, then only the Court under Article 227 of the Constitution of India can exercise the jurisdiction.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>The present writ petition filed by the petitioner is not maintainable and proper remedy for the petitioner was to either file an appeal under Section 37 of the Act of 1996 or to take recourse under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001522425\">13<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726943\">Commercial Courts Act, 2015<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>In view of the judgment passed by the Supreme Court in <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">&#8216;I-pay case&#39; (supra)<\/span><span><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">,<\/span> the writ petition filed by the petitioner is liable to be dismissed.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>The reliance placed by counsel for the petitioner on the judgments have all been considered by the Supreme Court which has found that all these judgments were not of any assistance to explain the scope of Section 34 (4) of the Act of 1996.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>The scope of Section 34 (4), Act of 1996 has come to the conclusion that on application being filed under Section 34 (4), Act of 1996, it is always not obligatory for the Court to remit the matter to the Arbitral Tribunal and discretionary power under Section 34 (4), Act of 1996 is to be exercised where there is inadequate reasoning or to fill up the gaps in the reasoning in support of findings, which are already recorded in the award.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Under the guise of additional reasons and filling up the gaps in the reasoning, no award can be remitted to the Arbitrator where there are no findings on the contentious issues in the award.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Supreme Court considered the scope of Section 34 (4) of the Act of 1996 in the case of <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/57K1R8nE\">I-Pay Clearing Services Private Limited v.

Further, Section 34(4) of the Act itself makes it clear that it is the discretion vested with the Court for remitting the matter to Arbitral Tribunal to give an opportunity to resume the proceedings or not.
