Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal challenging the order that declined to appoint an arbitrator under Section 11(6) of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996. The court found that the appellant's notice for arbitration, although not explicitly referencing the arbitration clauses, sufficiently indicated the intent to resolve disputes through arbitration as per the contract. Consequently, the court directed the appointment of an arbitrator to facilitate the resolution of the disputes between the parties.
