M/S. BHARAT COKING COAL LTD. vs M/S. C.K. AHUJA AND ANOTHER

The Supreme Court addressed the application under Section 14(2), 17, and 29 of the Indian Arbitration Act, 1940, concerning an arbitration award made by Mr. J.P. Thakur. The Court held that the award, filed on February 14, 1994, was valid despite objections regarding its filing and service to the parties. The Court dismissed the appeals as the disputes were referred to arbitration by consent, and the objections filed by Bharat Coking Coal Ltd. were deemed barred by limitation due to failure to file within the prescribed period after inspection of the award.
