Arbitration is an important dispute-resolution mechanism in India, particularly in commercial relationships where parties have agreed to resolve disputes through arbitration.

Key points in arbitration

1. Arbitration agreement
The existence and scope of an arbitration agreement are fundamental. The relevant contractual clause should be examined carefully before initiating proceedings.

2. Appointment of arbitrator
The applicable agreement and law determine how an arbitrator may be appointed and what procedure should be followed.

3. Scope of the dispute
Not every disagreement automatically falls within an arbitration clause. The nature of the dispute and the wording of the agreement require careful examination.

4. Evidence and pleadings
Contracts, invoices, correspondence, payment records, notices and other documents may become important during arbitral proceedings.

5. Interim measures
Depending upon the circumstances and applicable law, parties may seek interim protection concerning assets, evidence or the subject matter of the dispute.

6. Arbitral award
The tribunal ultimately determines the dispute in accordance with the applicable legal framework and the parties' submissions. The subsequent enforcement or challenge of an award is governed by applicable law.

7. Drafting matters
A poorly drafted arbitration clause can create unnecessary procedural disputes. A few lines in an agreement can sometimes create several pages of litigation—which is impressive, but rarely desirable.

Effective arbitration requires attention to the agreement, jurisdiction, procedure, evidence, limitation and the precise relief sought.

The right dispute-resolution strategy depends upon the facts, contractual framework and applicable law of each matter.
