4-1996 requires a detailed consideration of the clauses of
the two agreements, together with the surrounding
circumstances in which these agreements were entered
into, and a full consideration of the law on the subject.
None of this can be done given the limited jurisdiction of a
court under Section 11 of the 1996 Act. As has been held in
para 148 of Vidya Drolia [Vidya Drolia v. Durga Trading
Corpn., (2021) 2 SCC 1 : (2021) 1 SCC (Civ) 549] ,
detailed arguments on whether an agreement which
contains an arbitration clause has or has not been novated
cannot possibly be decided in exercise of a limited prima
facie review as to whether an arbitration agreement exists
between the parties. Also, this case does not fall within the
category of cases which ousts arbitration altogether, such
as matters which are in rem proceedings or cases which,
without doubt, concern minors, lunatics or other persons
incompetent to contract. There is nothing vexatious or
frivolous in the plea taken by the appellant. On the
contrary, a Section 11 court would refer the matter when
contentions relating to non-arbitrability are plainly
arguable, or when facts are contested. The court cannot, at
this stage, enter into a mini trial or elaborate review of the
facts and law which would usurp the jurisdiction of the
Arbitral Tribunal."

M/A Psa Mumbai Investments Pte. Limited vs The Board Of Trustees Of The Jawaharlal ... on 11 September, 2018
Ltd. v. Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust,
(2018) 10 SCC 525 : (2019) 1 SCC (Civ) 1] . If an
arbitration agreement is not valid or non-existent, the
Arbitral Tribunal cannot assume jurisdiction to
adjudicate upon the disputes. Appointment of an
arbitrator may be refused if the arbitration agreement is
not in writing, or the disputes are beyond the scope of
the arbitration agreement. Article V(1)(a) of the New
York Convention states that recognition and
enforcement of an award may be refused if the
arbitration agreement "is not valid under the law to
which the parties have subjected it or, failing any
indication thereon, under the law of the country where
the award was made"."
