Yograj Infrastructure Ltd Vs. Ssang Yong Engineering & Construction Company Ltd. & ANR. (SC) – The Supreme Court last week dismissed the appeal of Yograj Infras Ltd against the ruling of the Madhya Pradesh high court in its dispute with Ssang Yong Engineering & Construction Co. The National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) awarded a Rs 750 crore contract for a road project to Ssang. It also entered into an agreement with Yograj for supply of adequate manpower, material, machinery and all other resources, including finance. In case of disputes, arbitration was to be conducted in English in Singapore in accordance with the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) Rules. Disputes did arise, the contract was terminated and Yograj alleged fraud by Ssong. However, the high court quashed the criminal complaint. Yograj moved the Supreme Court seeking injunction against invoking bank guarantee, but its appeal was dismissed in view of the facts of the case.
