Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the Division Bench of the High Court failed to consider and address all the grounds raised by the appellant in their appeal against the arbitration award, which is a violation of established legal principles requiring courts to address all issues presented. The Court set aside the Division Bench's order and restored the appeal to the High Court, directing it to dispose of the matter within three months while considering all issues raised. The judgment emphasizes the limited scope of interference by courts in arbitration matters under the Arbitration Act, 1940, specifically Sections 30 and 33.
