Herbert Smith Freehills has issued its latest Indian International Arbitration e-bulletin. The e-bulletin considers two decisions of the Delhi High Court – one which presents a novel interpretation of the Indian Arbitration Act while expanding the scope for court intervention in foreign seated arbitration, and the other which reaffirms the law on arbitrability of disputes involving allegations of fraud. Also considered is a decision of the Supreme Court which reflects the pro-arbitration stance the Supreme Court has adopted in recent times, and a decision of the Bombay High Court on sovereign immunity in India.
The e-bulletin also reports on some interesting news stories in the investment treaty arbitration space, the GMR-Maldives dispute and recent developments on commercial arbitration in India.
