Specific Relief Act Section 14 | Restoration of Dealership Not Permissible Under Determinable Contracts : Allahabad HC

The Allahabad High Court has held that arbitral awards ordering restoration of dealership under terminable agreements violate Section 14 of the Specific Relief Act, which bars specific enforcement of determinable contracts. This clarifies that even in commercial arbitration, parties cannot compel performance of agreements designed to be terminable at will - a critical limit on arbitral powers in distributorship disputes.
