Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed multiple civil appeals concerning the interpretation of various provisions under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, particularly focusing on Section 34 regarding the setting aside of arbitral awards. The Court established that the grounds for setting aside an award must be strictly adhered to and cannot be expanded beyond the statutory provisions. The appeals were dismissed, affirming the validity of the arbitral awards in question and reinforcing the limited scope of judicial intervention in arbitration matters.
