Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the enforcement of foreign arbitral awards under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, specifically referencing Section 48, which outlines the conditions for refusing recognition and enforcement of foreign awards. The Court held that the High Court's rejection of objections regarding the maintainability of execution petitions was justified, affirming the validity of the arbitral awards as the petitioner failed to participate in the arbitration proceedings. The outcome upheld the enforcement of the awards in favor of the respondent.
