Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court examined the validity of setting aside an arbitral award by the High Court under Section 37 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996. The Court analyzed whether the High Court correctly intervened in the arbitral process and whether the impugned judgment and award were justified in setting aside the arbitral award. The Court ultimately upheld the arbitral process and the award, emphasizing the limited scope of judicial review in arbitration matters. The judgment reinforces the importance of respecting arbitral awards unless there are substantive grounds for interference.
