Section 34 Arbitration Act | Judicial Review Limited to Patent Illegality; Arbitrator’s Contract Interpretation Binding Unless Perverse: Bombay HC
Bombay High Court dismisses a Section 34 challenge, reinforcing that courts cannot re-examine arbitral awards unless the arbitrator’s interpretation is patently illegal or arbitrary. The ruling underscores the narrow scope of judicial review, protecting finality in commercial disputes and limiting interference to violations of public policy or fundamental legal errors.
