The 3-Judge Bench of Dr DY Chandrachud, CJ*., JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra, JJ., stated that the Arbitration Act is a self-contained code, which does not distinguish between governmental and private entities. Hence, the decision of the Court cannot be influenced by the position of the party before it and whether it is a fly-by-night operator.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">It was further stated that an assessment as to whether a party is reliable or trustworthy is subjective. &#8220;Many private entities, too, may rely on the size of their undertaking, its success, public image, or other factors to argue that they are not fly-by-night operators. In the absence of any provision of law in this regard, it would be inappropriate for courts to apply this standard while adjudicating the conditions upon which a stay of an award may be granted&#8221;. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/post\/2024\/11\/07\/arbitration-act-1996-does-not-distinguish-private-government-entity-sc-legal-news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Read More<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Unilateral appointment clauses in public-private contracts violative of Article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001574870\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">14<\/a> of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726967\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Constitution<\/a>; Arbitrator&#8217;s selection from PSUs panel not a mandate: Supreme Court<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">While hearing two references made to the larger Bench, wherein the correctness of the Central Organisation for Railway Electrification v.

The Court also ruled that the respondent was also not entitled to the benefit of condonation of delay under Section 5 of the Limitation Act. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/post\/2024\/11\/09\/cause-of-action-subsequent-arbitration-application-arbitrator-appointment-cannot-be-rejected-on-multiplicity-alone-sc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Read More<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Express designation of place in an arbitration agreement is an appropriate criterion to determine Seat of Arbitration: Supreme Court<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">While deciding the instant petition filed under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001544910\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">11(6)(a)<\/a> read with Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001544910\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">11(12)(a)<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726958\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996<\/a>, seeking a referral of the disputes that have arisen between the parties to arbitration and consequent appointment of an arbitrator by the Court; the 3-Judge Bench of Dr DY Chandrachud, CJ., JB Pardiwala* and Manoj Misra, JJ., held that more appropriate criterion for determining the seat of arbitration is that where in an arbitration agreement there is an express designation of a place of arbitration anchoring the arbitral proceedings to such place, and there being no other significant contrary indicia to show otherwise, such place would be the &#8216;seat&#8217; of arbitration even if it is designated in the nomenclature of &#8216;venue&#8217; in the arbitration agreement.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court further held that the moment &#8216;seat&#8217; is determined, it would be akin to an exclusive jurisdiction clause whereby only the jurisdictional courts of that seat alone will have the jurisdiction to regulate the arbitral proceedings. The notional doctrine of concurrent jurisdiction has been expressly rejected and overruled by this Court in its subsequent decisions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court further clarified that the &#8216;Closest Connection Test&#8217; for determining the seat of arbitration by identifying the law with which the agreement to arbitrate has its closest and most real connection is no longer a viable criterion for determination of the seat or situs of arbitration in view of the Shashoua Principle. The seat of arbitration cannot be determined by formulaic and unpredictable application of choice of law rules based on abstract connecting factors to the underlying contract. Even if the law governing the contract has been expressly stipulated, it does not mean that the law governing the arbitration agreement and by extension the seat of arbitration will be the same as the <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">lex contractus<\/span>. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/post\/2024\/11\/11\/seat-of-arbitration-determination-of-express-designation-agreement-sc-legal-news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Read More<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001544910\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">11(6)<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726958\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A&amp;C Act<\/a>, Referral Court must limit its enquiry to the question of limitation period only: Supreme Court<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">While considering the instant arbitration petition seeking appointment of arbitrator for adjudication of disputes and claims in terms of the Shareholders Agreement dated 25-07-2011 entered into between the petitioner and the respondents; the 3-Judge Bench of DY Chandrachud, CJ., JB Pardiwala* and Manoj Misra, JJ., reiterated that while determining the issue of limitation in the exercise of powers under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001544910\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">11(6)<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726958\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996<\/a>, the referral court must only conduct a limited enquiry for the purpose of examining whether the Section 11(6) application has been filed within the limitation period of three years or not. At this stage, it would not be proper for the referral court to indulge in an intricate evidentiary enquiry into the question of whether the claims raised by the petitioner are time barred. Such a determination must be left to the decision of the arbitrator. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/post\/2024\/11\/13\/referral-court-scope-of-enquiry-limitation-period-arbitration-petition-sc-legal-news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Read More<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">&#8216;Existence of arbitration agreement in license agreement and share subscription agreement not in dispute&#8217;, Supreme Court refers matter to DIAC for appointment of sole arbitrator<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">In an arbitration petition, the division bench of Dr. D.Y. Chandrachud, CJI and Manoj Misra*, J. said that since at the stage of consideration of a prayer under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001544910\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">11(6)<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726958\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996<\/a> (&#8216;Act, 1996&#8217;) , the Court has to confine itself to the examination of the existence of an arbitration agreement, it would not be appropriate for it to delve deep into the issue as it could well be considered by the arbitrator on the basis of evidence led by the parties. More so, when existence of arbitration agreement in the license agreement and share subscription agreement is not in dispute. Therefore, the Court referred the matter to the Delhi International Arbitration Centre for the appointment of a sole arbitrator to adjudicate upon the dispute between the parties. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/post\/2024\/11\/14\/supreme-court-refers-dispute-to-diac-sole-arbitrator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Read More<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">SC clarifies scope of judicial scrutiny under Section 11 of Arbitration Act: Sets aside Bombay HC ruling on appointment of arbitrator<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">In an appeal against the judgment and order passed by the Bombay High Court, wherein the High Court dismissed the application preferred by the appellant under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001544910\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">11<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726958\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996<\/a> (&#8216;Act, 1996&#8217;) seeking appointment of an arbitrator to adjudicate disputes and claims in terms of Clause 18.12 of the Master Services Agreement (&#8216;MSA&#8217;) executed between the appellant and the respondent, the three judge bench of Dr. Dhananjaya Y. Chandrachud, CJI, J.B. Pardiwala* and Manoj Misra, JJ. while setting aside the impugned judgment, said that the High Court exceeded the limited scope of judicial scrutiny at the stage of Section 11 by undertaking a detailed examination of the factual matrix. The High Court erroneously proceeded to assess the auditor&#8217;s report in detail and dismissed the arbitration application. <a
