Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the Madhya Pradesh Co-operative Societies Act, 1960, specifically Section 1, is applicable only within the territorial limits of Madhya Pradesh, and thus Section 64 of the Act does not apply to agreements executed outside the state. The Court affirmed the High Court's decision that the arbitration clause was valid as the agreements were executed in Maharashtra, leading to the dismissal of the appeal by the appellant society. The Court found no merit in the appellant's contention regarding the applicability of the Act's provisions.
