Section 11 Arbitration Act | Limitation Disputes Must Be Decided by Arbitral Tribunal, Not Court at Appointment Stage: MP HC Indore
The Madhya Pradesh High Court ruled that when factual disputes exist over limitation periods in arbitration referrals, the issue must be adjudicated by the arbitral tribunal, not the court during Section 11 appointment proceedings. This clarifies the limited scope of judicial review at the arbitrator appointment stage, reinforcing tribunal autonomy in contested factual matters.
