Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed an appeal concerning the setting aside of an arbitral award under Section 34 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996. The court found that the arbitral tribunal had drawn incorrect inferences and failed to consider crucial evidence, leading to the rejection of several claims and counterclaims. The court allowed the parties to re-agitate their claims afresh, emphasizing the need for proper consideration of evidence in arbitration proceedings.
