2009 (1) TMI 779 - SC - Indian LawsWhether the Court at Bombay alone had jurisdiction over the dispute? Held that:- The learned Division Bench of the Calcutta High Court misread and misinterpreted the provisions of sub-Sections (3) and (4) of Section 31 of the Act and thereby arrived at a wrong finding to the effect that by virtue of the aforesaid provision of Section 31(4) the Calcutta High Court would have jurisdiction in the matter. It is only the Court at Jaipur which will have jurisdiction to try and decide the arbitration proceedings between the parties and also entertain a petition of the aforesaid nature i.e. Section 20 of the Act, we set aside and quash the judgment and order of the Division Bench of the Calcutta High Court. Appeal allowed.
