FOOD CORPORATION OF INDIA vs INDIAN COUNCIL OF ARBITRATION .

The Supreme Court addressed the arbitration disputes between the Food Corporation of India (FCI) and the Millers, emphasizing the binding nature of the arbitration clause as per the Indian Council of Arbitration's rules. The Court held that the refusal of the ICA to proceed with arbitration due to lack of written consent from the Millers was unjustified, as the arbitration clause mandated that disputes be settled through arbitration. The Court directed that the arbitration process should continue as per the agreed terms, reinforcing the enforceability of arbitration agreements under Indian law.
