Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the enforceability of the arbitration clause in the Facilitation Deed dated 25.03.2009 under Section 9 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, affirming that disputes arising from the agreement must be resolved through arbitration in Singapore. The Court emphasized that the choice of governing law and arbitration venue is valid and binding, thereby rejecting the appellant's claims regarding the termination of the media rights agreement. The judgment reinforces the principle that parties are bound by their contractual agreements regarding dispute resolution.
