Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court overturned the High Court's decision that set aside an arbitral award, which had upheld the forfeiture of a security deposit by the appellants. The Court found that the High Court had erred in concluding that the arbitral award lacked reasons and was arbitrary. Consequently, the Supreme Court reinstated the arbitral award, affirming the decision of the District Judge that had previously upheld it.
