Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that under Section 11(6) of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, the High Court is empowered to appoint an Arbitral Tribunal when a party fails to do so. The Court found that the High Court's dismissal of the appellant's appeal against the modified award was erroneous and remanded the case for a fresh decision on merits. The Court emphasized the importance of adhering to the arbitration agreement and the need for proper adjudication of disputes arising from it.
