1. Pradeep Transcore Private Limited ... vs Tbea Energy India Private Limited ... on 30 April, 2021

13. Now, let us examine as to whether the appointment of the Arbitrator made by the respondent could be said to be invalid or nonest so as to exercise the jurisdiction under Section 11(6) of the Act. In the instant case, it transpires that none of the parties had disputed about the existence of the Arbitration Clause No. 18 contained in their respective agreements relied upon by them. The petitioner relies upon the Clause­18 as contained in the agreement dated 06.02.219 signed on 10.07.2019, and the respondent relies upon the identically worded Clause­18 contained in the agreement dated 22.10.20198 allegedly signed on 07.11.2019. As stated earlier, the petitioner's legal representative Mr.Pathan having twice called upon the respondent vide Notice dated 21.7.2020 and 28.8.2020 to appoint an Arbitrator as per Article 18 of the MOU dated 6.2.2019, and the respondent having appointed the Sole Arbitrator Mr. Justice Deepak Verma after giving due Notice dated 20.8.2020, it could not be said that the appointment made by the respondent was without following the agreed procedure Page 20 of 23 Downloaded on : Fri Apr 30 22:44:34 IST 2021 C/IAAP/70/2020 CAV JUDGMENT and therefore was nonest in the eye of law. It may be noted that the Sole Arbitrator was appointed within the knowledge of the petitioner and the arbitration proceedings had also been initiated by the said Sole Arbitrator, and therefore the only course open for the petitioner was to approach the Court under Section 13 of the said Act, challenging the procedure/appointment of the Arbitrator. Beneficial reference of the decisions in case of Antrix Corporation Limited vs. Devas Mulitmedia Private Limited reported in (2014) 11 SCC 560 and in case of Pricol Ltd. v. Johnson Controls Enterprise Ltd. reported in (2015) 4 SCC 177 be made in this regard. It is also a well settled legal position of law that in view of Section 16 of the said Act, the arbitral Tribunal is empowered to rule on its own jurisdiction, including to rule on any objection with respect to the existence or validity of the arbitration agreement.

Rspl Limited Through Shri Harish ... vs Simplex Infrastructure Ltd on 7 May, 2021

In Pricol Ltd. (supra), the appointment of the Arbitrator was sought under the Joint Venture Agreement entered into between the parties, after the respondent had invoked the concerned arbitration clause and moved the Singapore International Arbitration Centre for the appointment of an Arbitrator. During the pendency of the said application under Section 11(6) of the said Act filed by the petitioner, the said authority i.e. SIAC appointed an Arbitrator under the provisions contained in the Singapore International Arbitration Act. The Sole Arbitrator after the preliminary hearing on the issue of jurisdiction passed a partial award holding that the appointment was valid. In the backdrop of such facts, the Supreme Court did not entertain the petitioner's petition under Section 11 (6) of the said Act by holding as under:­ Page 25 of 32 Downloaded on : Sat May 08 00:20:07 IST 2021 C/IAAP/51/2020 CAV JUDGMENT "11. From the relevant facts of the case, it is also clear that the respondents at one time had suggested the name of a retired judge of the Supreme Court of India as the sole Arbitrator, which was not agreed to by the petitioner, who in turn, was inclined to nominate another learned judge. Be that as it may, in such a situation, the respondents by invoking Arbitration clause 30.2 had approached SIAC for appointment of an Arbitrator. This was on 5th September, 2014 i.e. before the present proceeding was instituted by the petitioner. Though the notice of the said request was served on the petitioner on 11th September, 2014, no steps were taken by the petitioner to pre­ empt the appointment of a sole Arbitrator by SIAC. Mr. Steven Y.H. Lim came to be appointed as the sole Arbitrator by the SIAC on 29th September, 2014. The petitioner has submitted to the jurisdiction of Mr. Steven Y.H. Lim. Even if it is held that such participation, being under protest, would not operate as an estoppel, what must be acknowledged is that the appointment of the sole Arbitrator made by SIAC and the partial award on the issue of jurisdiction cannot be questioned and examined in a proceeding under Section 11(6) of the Act which empowers the Chief Justice or his nominee only to appoint an Arbitrator in case the parties fail to do so in accordance with the terms agreed upon by them. To exercise the said power, in the facts and events that has taken place, would really amount to sitting in appeal over the decision of SIAC in appointing Mr. Lim as well as the partial award dated 27th November, 2014 passed by him acting as the sole Arbitrator.

8. While it is correct that in Antrix (supra) and Pricol Limited (supra), it was opined by this Court that after appointment of an Arbitrator is made, the remedy of the aggrieved party is not under Section 11(6) but such remedy lies elsewhere and under different provisions of the Arbitration Act (Sections 12 and 13), the context in which the aforesaid view was expressed cannot be lost sight of. In Antrix (supra), appointment of the Arbitrator, as per ICC Rules, was as per the alternative procedure agreed upon, whereas in Pricol Limited (supra), the party which had filed the application under Section 11(6) of the Arbitration Act had already submitted to the jurisdiction of the Arbitrator. In the present case, the situation is otherwise.
