Section 9 Arbitration Act | Dissenting Members Cannot Be Evicted Until Full IOD & Contractual Conditions Met: Bombay HC

Bombay HC clarifies that dissenting members of a cooperative housing society cannot be compelled to vacate premises under a redevelopment agreement until the developer obtains Full IOD and fulfills all contractual conditions. The court held that mere submission of Consenting Member Declarations does not override the statutory safeguards for dissenting members, ensuring interim relief under Section 9 of the Arbitration Act.
