Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the execution of an arbitration award despite the petitioner's claim that confirmation from a U.S. court was necessary under the Federal Arbitration Act. The Court clarified that the consent order did not mandate such confirmation for enforcement in India. It held that the arbitration award was valid and enforceable under Indian law, thereby rejecting the petitioner's objections to the execution petition. The outcome affirmed the lower court's decision to allow the execution of the award in India.
