Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed whether the Umpire was required to explicitly state that items 2 to 5 of the dispute were arbitrable under the contract's arbitration clause, as per Clause 78 of the agreement executed on May 25, 1971. The Court held that the arbitration clause sufficiently encompassed all disputes arising from the contract, thus affirming the arbitrability of the items in question without the need for formal expression. The appeal was dismissed, upholding the arbitration award.
