Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decisions of the High Court affirming the Arbitral Award under Section 34 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, which dismissed the appellant's application challenging the award. The Court reiterated that the scope of judicial review in arbitration matters is limited, emphasizing that the courts should not interfere with the arbitral tribunal's findings unless there is a clear violation of principles of natural justice or the award is contrary to public policy. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the validity of the Arbitral Award dated June 18, 2004.
