The requirement of law of filing of the Arbitration Petition within
three months and thirty days (extended period), in our view, just

by the Apex Court in Consolidated Engineering (supra). Therefore,
having once permitted the Appellant to convert the Arbitration
Appeal of Appellate Side to the Original Side Arbitration Petition, the
further delay, even if any, in taking steps and/or removing office

34(3) of the Arbitration Act within the period prescribed. This is not
the case of extension of limitation period, but this is a case where the
bonafide Arbitration Appeal was filed on Appellate Side instead of
Arbitration Petition on Original Side. The protection so available
under Section 14 of Limitation Act, therefore, is required to be
extended and/or given to the Appellant as case is made out. The issue
of limitation and the issue of non-removal of office objections are
distinct and separate. It cannot be said that the proceedings pursuant
to order dated 7.10.2014 was disposed of and after order of
conversion dated 7.10.2014, the proceedings had remained on the file
of the Court.
