Umaxe Projects Private Limited Vs Air Force Naval Housing Board (Delhi High Court)

Introduction: In a recent case before the Delhi High Court, Umaxe Projects Private Limited challenged arbitral awards under Section 34 of the Arbitration & Conciliation Act, 1996. The main contention was the ineligibility of the arbitrator, and whether seeking an extension under Section 29A amounted to a waiver of this right. Here’s a detailed analysis of the court’s decision.

Detailed Analysis:

1. Background: Umaxe Projects Pvt. Ltd. sought to set aside arbitral awards delivered by a Sole Arbitrator in disputes related to two separate projects. The primary ground for challenge was the alleged ineligibility of the arbitrator.

2. Grounds for Challenge: Umaxe argued that the arbitrator’s appointment was contrary to the Seventh Schedule of the A&C Act, making the awards susceptible to challenge. They contended that their participation in the arbitral proceedings did not waive their right to challenge the arbitrator’s eligibility.
