2015 (3) TMI 22 - SC - Indian LawsJurisdiction of Court - Application under Section 34 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 - Held that:- Indisputably, the Arbitration proceeding has been conducted within the jurisdiction of Raichur court, which has jurisdiction as per Section 20 of the Code of Civil Procedure and is subordinate to the High Court of Karnataka which entertained Section 11 Application. Hence, the Award cannot be challenged before a Court subordinate to the High Court of Bombay. Exercise of jurisdiction by such court shall be against the provision of Section 42 of the Act. We, after giving our anxious consideration to the matter, are of the view that the District Court at Latur and High Court of Bombay have committed error of law in entertaining the application under Section 34 of the Act and dismissing the revision petition. We, therefore, allow this appeal and set aside the order passed by the High Court. - Decided in favour of appellant.
