Head Note

The Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996  - Section 11 (10)

Appointment of Arbitrator - Application for - The respondents by invoking Arbitration clause 30.2 had approached SIAC for appointment of an Arbitrator - This was on 5th September, 2014 i.e. before the present proceeding was instituted by the petitioner - Though the notice of the said request was served on the petitioner on 11th September, 2014, no steps were taken by the petitioner to pre- empt the appointment of a sole Arbitrator by SIAC sole Arbitrator by the SIAC on 29th September, 2014 - The petitioner has submitted to the jurisdiction of the said arbitration - Even if it is held that such participation, being under protest, would not operate as an estoppel, what must be acknowledged is that the appointment of the sole Arbitrator made by SIAC and the partial award on the issue of jurisdiction cannot be questioned and examined in a proceeding under Section 11(6) of the Act - To exercise the said power, in the facts and events that has taken place, would really amount to sitting in appeal over the decision of SIAC in appointing arbitrator as well as the partial award dated 27th November, 2014 passed by him acting as the sole Arbitrator - Such an exercise would be wholly inappropriate in the context of the jurisdiction under Section 11(6) of the Act - Application u/s 11(6) liable to be dismissed.
