Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to appoint an arbitrator under Section 11 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, affirming that disputes arising from the interpretation of a Trust Deed can be arbitrated if the deed explicitly provides for it. The Court clarified that the parties' non-signatory status does not preclude them from seeking arbitration if they are beneficiaries under the Trust. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the appointment of Shri S.R. Shah as the sole Arbitrator.
