#Confidential Information

Bombay HC grants interim reliefs under Section 9 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, holding prima facie that an arbitration agreement exists in an employment dispute involving confidential information. The Court preserved the Arbitral Tribunal's jurisdiction to finally decide on the agreement's scope, impacting parties in confidentiality and non-compete disputes.

Bombay HC rules that an arbitration clause survives a business transfer if employment continuity is maintained, even absent explicit mention in the new agreement. This protects parties relying on pre-transfer arbitration terms during disputes over confidential information and contractual breaches.
