Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to set aside the arbitrator's award under the Arbitration Act, 1940, citing Sections 30 and 16. The Court found that the arbitrator failed to disclose whether he considered all documentary evidence, which constituted legal misconduct and non-application of mind. The appeal was dismissed, and the matter was remitted back to the Arbitration Tribunal for reconsideration.
