3As recorded in the order dated 11.09.2023.
4Ex. Appl. (OS) 1620/2023 in OMP (EFA) (COMM) 2/2019, Ex. Appl. (OS) 1622/2023 in OMP (EFA) (COMM) 3/2019 and Ex. Appl. (OS) 1621/2023 in OMP (EFA) (COMM) 4/2019.
7. During oral arguments, it was contended by Mr. Raghuvanshi that this Court lacks jurisdiction to entertain the present petition. This contention has not been pressed in the judgment debtor's written submissions. In any event, it is the admitted position that the judgment debtor's registered office is located within the jurisdiction of this Court. In an affidavit dated 01.12.2022, filed by the judgment debtor, it has disclosed property at "1st Floor, "SCOPE MINAR" Plot No. 2A & 2B, Laxminagar District Centre, Delhi" as part of its immovable properties. The enforcement of an award can be sought in any jurisdiction where the judgment debtor has assets. The objection is, therefore, unmerited.
In view of the statements made on behalf of the parties, this point does not survive for adjudication.
10. The other two objections are disposed of by this judgment.
