Section 34 Arbitration Act | Partial Setting Aside Permitted for Severable Claims in International Commercial Arbitration : Bombay HC
The Bombay High Court has ruled that arbitral awards in international commercial arbitration may be partially set aside under Section 34 when distinct claims are legally separable, upholding USD 43,500.25 for non-supply while invalidating the rest due to patent illegality. This reinforces the principle that courts must not overturn entire awards for isolated defects, protecting parties with valid claims in complex multi-issue disputes.
