Sohan Lal Gupta (Dead) Thr. L.Rs. & Ors vs Smt. Asha Devi Gupta & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of what constitutes reasonable notice by an arbitrator in the context of arbitration proceedings under the Arbitration Act. The Court held that the arbitrator must provide adequate notice to the parties involved to ensure fairness in the proceedings, and failure to do so can lead to the setting aside of the arbitration award. The judgment affirmed the decision of the Calcutta High Court which had set aside the arbitration award due to lack of proper notice.
