It is a prevalent belief that section 17 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 (‘the Act’) does not confer any power on the Arbitral tribunal to enforce its order for interim measure of protection, nor does it provide for judicial enforcement of any such interim order passed by the Arbitral tribunal. Consequently, it appears that section 17 of the Act is REDUNDANT; however, THIS COULD NOT HAVE BEEN THE LEGISLATIVE INTENT. Therefore, I have made some research and humbly submit my views as follows.
This has reference to our tender advertisement No.: IRDA/IT/NTC/TNDR/085/05/2011 dated 2nd May, 2011. The dates for submissions of Technical / Commercial bids and for further tendering activities have been re-scheduled as detailed below:

The cheque was presented to the drawee bank through the banker of the respondent no.1. Cheque was returned unpaid on the ground that the drawer had stopped the payment.

Mr.Vinoskumar Ramachandran vs The State Of Maharashtra – The Bombay high court has ruled that when a bank account is sought to be seized during criminal investigation, the account-holder need not be given prior notice. In this case, Essar Logistics vs Vinoskumar, the account holder argued that natural justice demanded that he should be given notice before freezing his account. The division bench of the high court rejected his contention and remarked: It would indeed be absurd to suggest that a person must be told that his bank account, which is suspected of having been used in the commission of an offence by himself or even by another, is being frozen to allow him to have it closed or to have its proceeds withdrawn or transferred upon such notice.
Booz Allen and Hamilton Inc. Vs. SBI Home Finance Ltd. & Ors.- All disputes are not capable of settlement through arbitration; some by nature have to be adjudicated by courts, according to the Supreme Court. A suit for sale, foreclosure or redemption of mortgaged property should be tried by a court and not by arbitral tribunal, the court stated in the judgment, Booz Allen & Hamilton Inc. Vs SBI Home Finance Ltd. In this case, two firms took loan from SBI to buy flats in Mumbai and they entered into leave and licence agreements with Booz. The borrowers did not repay the loan and so SBI filed a mortgage suit before the Bombay high court. Booz moved the high court for arbitration which was dismissed. Its appeal was also dismissed by the Supreme Court. It stated that a court where the mortgage suit is pending should not refer the parties to arbitration as it is not an “arbitrable” issue. This is so because only a court can protect the interests of third parties. Arbitration deals with only disputes between parties to the arbitration agreement. The court gave similar instances where arbitration should not be attempted, like insolvency and winding up matters, tenancy, wills, criminal offences, matrimonial disputes and guardianship issues.
