Judgment text excerpt
The Court examined whether disputes arising from a 1993 agreement should be governed by the Arbitration Act, 1940 or the Arbitration & Conciliation Act, 1996. The central issue involves the transition between the old and new arbitration regimes when an arbitration clause existed prior to the enactment of the 1996 Act. The ruling clarifies the applicable law based on the timing of the agreement and the initiation of arbitration proceedings.
