19. The learned Counsel for the respondent had placed reliance on several decisions. Firstly, he referred to Union of India v. Uttam Singh Dugal & Co. (Pvt) Ltd. for the proposition that an acceptance must be absolute before it could be said that a contract has come into being. This decision was referred to in the context of exchange of three letters dated 20.12.1996, 30.12.1996 and 18.01.1997. According to the learned Counsel, the letter dated 18.01.1997 was a letter whereunder the arbitrator was appointed because the respondent was acting under the contract in respect of the disputes under the contract. On the other hand, he submits that the petitioners had appointed their arbitrator de hors the contract.
