Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court overturned the High Court's dismissal of the application under Section 11(6) of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, holding that the arbitration clause in the Standard Terms and Conditions was incorporated into the purchase order. The Court clarified that the existence of an arbitration agreement can be established even if not explicitly referenced, as long as the parties intended to be bound by it. The Court directed the appointment of an arbitrator to resolve the dispute between the parties.
