Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed an application under Section 11(6) of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, for the appointment of an arbitrator concerning disputes arising from sub-contracts related to the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium renovation. The Court held that the objections raised by the respondent regarding the applicant's standing were unfounded, as the applicant and the contracting entity were deemed to be the same under relevant correspondence and legal definitions. Consequently, the Court appointed an arbitrator, affirming the validity of the arbitration clause invocation despite the mis-description of parties.
