Arbitration and the Concept of Party under Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996

Arbitration and the Concept of Party under Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996

"The use of the word 'and' in Sections 35 and 73 leads to an unmistakable conclusion that under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 the concept of a “party” is distinct and different from the concept of “persons claiming through or under” a party to the arbitration agreement."
