Former Employee as Arbitrator after GF Toll /slideshow/former-employee-as-arbitrator-after-gf-toll/127401031 formeremployeeasarbr-190107012147
Appointment of former employees of a party has been a controversial topic and it was expected that the 2015 amendments would settle the issue once and for all. However, recent developments have titled in favour of allowing former employees to act as arbitrators. A few days back, the Supreme Court of India held in The Government of Haryana PWD Haryana (B and R) Branch v. M/s. G.F. Toll Road Pvt. Ltd. & Ors., that there is no bar under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, even after the 2015 amendments, barring former employees of a party from acting as arbitrator. This 14 slide presentation addresses the decision of the Supreme Court. ]]>

Substituted Performance in Indian Contract Law: An Analysis /slideshow/substituted-performance-in-indian-contract-law-an-analysis/120987392 substitutedperformancebadrinathsrinivasanf-181028134910
One of the most prominent clauses in Government contracts in India is the risk purchase or the risk and cost clause. This authorises the promisee to get the promise fulfilled either by itself or through a third person in case of the promisors default and allows the promisee to be compensated for the increased costs and effort. Till now, the legal framework of such risk and cost contracting was not clear, leading to difference in decisions in courts and arbitral tribunals on various aspects of risk and cost contracting. Now, the Parliament has attempted to lay down the framework for such risk and cost contracting under the rubric of substituted performance by enacting the Specific Relief (Amendment) Act, 2018. This paper analyses the law on the subject and evaluates the provisions in the said Act. It concludes by providing suggestions to contract drafters on how to modify their existing risk and cost contracting clauses and to courts on how best to construe Section 20 to ensure consonance with the salutary objectives behind enactment of the amendments. This presentation was made in the 4th International Conference on International & Domestic Arbitration: Current Scenario & Way Ahead, Chennai, 26-27 October 2018.]]>

Incorporation of Arbitration Clause by Reference: Inox Wind v Thermocables (SCI: 05.01.2018) /slideshow/incorporation-of-arbitration-clause-by-reference-inox-wind-v-thermocables-sci-05012018/85941408 inoxwindvthermocablessci2017-180110003222
On 05.01.2018, the Supreme Court of India delivered an important judgement on the law on incorporation of arbitration clause by reference. The question before the Supreme Court was whether the arbitration clause forming a part of standard form of contract of a party is binding on the contracting parties if the standard form is incorporated by reference to govern their contract. The court was of the view that the previous decision of the Supreme Court in MR Engineers & Contractors Pvt. Ltd. v. Som Datt Builders Ltd. (2009) 7 SCC 696 restricted incorporation only to standard forms of terms of trade associations/ professional bodies, and not to standard terms of a party. The court held that English law (which was relied on by the court in MR Engineers has since evolved and that a mere reference in the contract to the standard terms of one of the parties to the contract is sufficient to treat the arbitration clause containing in such standard terms as binding between the parties. This presentation critically evaluates the decision and raises significant questions on the efficacy of the current law on the subject. While it agrees with the conclusion of the Supreme Court on the main aspect before the case, it raises questions on the manner in which the change of law has been achieved without reference of the question to a larger Bench. The presentation also argues that the position on the law as regards incorporation in general is not satisfactory and requires detailed consideration by a larger Bench. ]]>

Cost Allocation under the Amended Indian Arbitration Law: A Critique /slideshow/cost-allocation-under-the-amended-indian-arbitration-law-a-critique/76142164 costsiitarbf-170520010841
Section 31(8) of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 as originally enacted dealt with costs in arbitration. The evolution of the law on the subject led to dissatisfaction. After numerous calls for reforms, the Law Commission of India in its 246th Report sought overhaul of the existing law on the subject. Based on the said Report, Section 31(8) stood replaced by a new provision on costs in the form of Section 31A. This paper examines if the new regime on costs allocation is satisfactory, especially in the light of objectives of the recent amendments. The paper specifically focuses on whether arbitral tribunal and courts award costs in the arbitral proceedings or in arbitration related court proceedings respectively in consonance with the objectives of the latest amendments to the Act. ]]>
