Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's ruling that the challenge to the arbitral award dated 07.07.1996 was time-barred under Section 34 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996. The Court established that the limitation period for filing a challenge begins from the date of the award's communication to the parties, and in this case, the appellants failed to file their application within the stipulated time. Consequently, the appeals were dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision.
