Headnote | Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996: s. 34 – Setting aside of arbitral award – Dispute regarding partnership accounts between the parties referred to arbitration – As a counter claim, the surviving partner of the appellant firm alleged that the respondent had falsified accounts and siphoned huge sums of money – Arbitrator concluded that the respondent was guilty of fraud – Application by the respondent for setting aside of award – Rejected by Single Judge of the High Court – Division Bench of the High Court held arbitrator’s method of proceeding backwards and looking at accounts of 21 years was unsustainable and set aside the award on the ground of public policy – On appeal, held: Appellant had knowledge of the alleged fraud, but made no attempt to positively enforce his claim for more than 3 years from the date of such knowledge – Further, no specific averments on allegation of fraud – Thus, no error by Division Bench of High Court in setting aside the award. Limitation Act, 1963 – s. 17 – Effect of fraud or mistake – Start of period of limitation – Held: s. 17 is an exception to the rule that the period of limitation commences from the date of cause of action – However, where the condition contemplated under the provision exists (such as fraud), then subject to proof based on specific averments, date when limitation begins to be seen is date of knowledge of the plaintiff. |

NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources.
