On 23.01.2018, the Supreme Court of India delivered a judgement in the case of Indian Farmers Fertilizers Co-operative Ltd. v. Bhadra Products. The decision is significant because it clarifies the difference between an Interim Award on limitation and a decision on a challenge to the tribunal's jurisdiction. Both these determinations have different legal consequences. An Interim Award (partial award) dismissing an objection on limitation is an Interim Award which can be challenged under Section 34 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 soon after it is issued, while a determination dismissing jurisdictional objections can be challenged only after the award is passed [S. 16(6)].
This presentation (11 slides) provides a descriptive overview of the judgement and critically evaluates the judgement.
