State Trading Corporation Of India Ltd vs M/S Toepfer International Asia Pte Ltd. on 2 July, 2014
"35. What then would constitute the 'Fundamental
policy of Indian Law' is the question. The decision in
Saw Pipes Ltd. (supra) does not elaborate that aspect.
Even so, the expression must, in our opinion, include
all such fundamental principles as providing a basis for
administration of justice and enforcement of law in this
country. Without meaning to exhaustively enumerate
the purport of the expression "Fundamental Policy of
Indian Law", we may refer to three distinct and
fundamental juristic principles that must necessarily be
understood as a part and parcel of the Fundamental
Policy of Indian law. The first and foremost is the
principle that in every determination whether by a
Court or other authority that affects the rights of a
citizen or leads to any civil consequences, the Court or
authority concerned is bound to adopt what is in legal
parlance called a 'judicial approach' in the matter. The
duty to adopt a judicial approach arises from the very
nature of the power exercised by the Court or the
authority does not have to be separately or additionally
enjoined upon the fora concerned. What must be
remembered is that the importance of Judicial
approach in judicial and quasi judicial determination
lies in the fact so long as the Court, Tribunal or the
authority exercising powers that affect the rights or
obligations of the parties before them shows fidelity to
judicial approach, they cannot act in an arbitrary,
capricious or whimsical manner. Judicial approach
ensures that the authority acts bonafide and deals with
the subject in a fair, reasonable and objective manner
and that its decision is not actuated by any extraneous
consideration. Judicial approach in that sense acts as a
check against flaws and faults that can render the

decision of a Court, Tribunal or Authority vulnerable to
challenge.
Shree Vinayak Cement Clearing Agency vs Cement Corporation Of India on 25 July, 2007
16. The senior counsel for the respondent has in this
regard rightly argued that the scope of appeal under
Section 37 is even more restricted. It has been so held
by the Division Benches of this Court in Thyssen Krupp
Werkstoffe v. Steel Authority of India
MANU/DE/1853/2011 and Shree Vinayak Cement
Clearing Agency v. Cement Corporation of India 147
(2007) DLT 385. It is also the contention of the senior
counsel for the respondent that the argument made by
the appellant before the learned Single Judge and
Arbtn no.324/2018 Union of India vs. M/s B.N.N Communication Engineers page no.18
being made before this Court, that the particular clause
in the contract is a contract of indemnification, was not
even raised before the Arbitral Tribunal and did not
form the ground in the OMP filed under Section 34 of
the Act and was raised for the first time in the
arguments.
Rashtriya Ispat Nigam Ltd vs M/S Dewan Chand Ram Saran on 25 April, 2012
17. The Supreme Court in Rashtriya Ispat Nigam
Ltd. v. Dewan Chand Ram Saran (2012) 5 SCC
306 refused to set aside an arbitral award, under the
1996 Act on the ground that the view taken by the
Arbitral Tribunal was against the terms of the contract
and held that it could not be said that the Arbitral
Tribunal had travelled outside its jurisdiction and the
Court could not substitute its view in place of the
interpretation accepted by the Arbitral Tribunal. It was
reiterated that the Arbitral Tribunal is legitimately
entitled to take the view which it holds to be correct
one after considering the material before it and after
interpreting the provisions of the Agreement and if the
Arbitral Tribunal does so, its decision has to be
accepted as final and binding.
