DEO NARAIN CHOUDHURY vs SHREE NARAIN CHOUDHARY

The Supreme Court held that under Article 119 of the Limitation Act, 1963, the period for filing objections to an arbitration award commences from the date of service of notice of the filing of the award. The Court affirmed that the objections filed by the Respondent were within the limitation period, as the notice was received on 25th July 1996, and thus the trial court's decision to reject the preliminary contention was upheld. The appeal was dismissed, confirming the validity of the objections raised by the Respondent.
