Jagtar Singh Johal @ Jaggi vs National Investigation Agency on 18 September, 2024
The Supreme Court in the case
of Indian Statistical Institute v. Associated
Builders: (1978) 1 SCC 483 considered the
applicability of section 5 of the Limitation Act,
1963 where the objection to an award under the
provisions of the Arbitration Act, 1940 was filed in
time but there was substantial delay in re-filing the
same. The High Court in that case held that there
was a delay in filing the objections for setting aside
the award and consequently, rejected the
application for condonation of delay. An appeal
against the decision of the High Court was allowed
and the Supreme Court rejected the contention
that there was any delay in filing objections for
setting aside the award. ........
