What it involvesContractors, suppliers, founders with arbitration clause. Relevant lawSec 9 Arbitration Act (arbitration to commence within 90 days of a pre-arbitral S.9 order – S.9(2); no S.9 once tribunal constituted unless S.17 remedy inefficacious – S.9(3)). ForumDistrict Court Ernakulam / High Court of Kerala (as per value/international) – drafted and argued directly. Procedure & stageArbitration clause + cause → S.9 with urgency + balance → ex-parte + compliance → bridge to S.17/tribunal. RemedyAttachment, injunction, custody, appointment of guardian/receiver. High Court connectionHC S.9 where maintainable Documents normally requiredAgreement with clause, breach proof, dissipation risk, valuation. LimitationMove before assets vanish; commence arbitration within 90 days of the S.9 order or further time the court allows (S.9(2)) – diary. **Related:** S.11; S.34; mediation Sec 5. **S.9 without arbitration clause?** No – clause needed; else civil injunction. ### Arbitration S.11 (High Court) — arbitrator appointment Opposite side ignores invocation; sole-arbitrator bias feared. What it involvesSame as above. Relevant lawSec 11(4)-(6); appointment by the High Court (or person/institution it designates) for domestic arbitration. ForumHigh Court Kerala. Procedure & stageSec 21 invocation → 30 days for the other side to appoint/agree (S.11(4)-(5)) → S.11 with agreement + cause + fee/schedule + independence disclosure. RemedyIndependent tribunal constituted. High Court connectionDirect High Court remedy – the S.11 petition is drafted and argued directly in the High Court. Documents normally requiredAgreement, invocation + postal proof, claims summary. LimitationInvoke promptly; limitation for arbitral claim (3 years from cause) preserved independent of S.11. **Related:** S.9; S.34; MSEFC-Silpi overlap. **HC appoints even if respondent silent?** Yes on prima facie clause + cause. ### Arbitration S.34 challenge — 3-month + 30-day pack Adverse award (MSEFC, contract, labour-arbitration) needs set-aside. What it involvesAward-debtors/creditors. Relevant lawSec 34 (patent illegality/public policy/procedure – narrow). ForumDistrict Court / HC (as per pecuniary/international) – drafting + appearance as scope permits; referral for high-value. Procedure & stageAward + arbitral record → ground chart (Sec 34(2); (2A) patent illegality for non-international awards) → filing with stay/conditional-deposit prayer. RemedySet-aside/remand; no merits appeal. High Court connectionS.37 appeal to HC Documents normally requiredAward, pleadings, evidence, tribunal orders, deposit proof. Limitation3 months + 30 days condonable – hard clock from receipt; 75% MSEFC deposit parallel. **Related:** S.37; 75% deposit; mediation. **Re-argue merits in S.34?** No – limited grounds; note gives honest low-success caution where award reasoned. ### Arbitration S.37 appeal — to High Court S.9/S.34/refusal order adverse. What it involvesSame parties. Relevant lawSec 37 (appealable orders only). ForumHC Kerala (from District) / Division as maintainable. Procedure & stageCertified order + S.34/S.9 record → S.37 memo + stay → hearing. RemedyReversal/remand of grant/refusal. High Court connectionDirect HC remedy. Documents normally requiredImpugned order, lower record, limitation computation. Limitation90 days from a District Court to the HC (Limitation Act Art.116) / 30 days for an intra-HC appeal (Art.117), or 60 days where Commercial Courts Act S.13(1A) applies (Borse Brothers, SC 2021) – file with stay, not after. **Related:** S.34; S.9. **All interim orders appealable?** Only Sec 37-listed. ### Arbitration award execution under Section 36 Award in client's favour; award-debtor not paying and may dissipate assets. What it involvesAward-creditors and award-debtors; enforcement of the award as a decree. Relevant lawArbitration Act S.36 (award enforceable as a decree once the S.34 window closes or challenge is refused; a S.34 filing does not by itself stay enforcement – stay only on a separate application, S.36(2)-(3)); Limitation Act governs the execution application. ForumExecution petition where the assets lie – no transfer of decree from the seat court needed (Sundaram Finance v. Abdul Samad, SC 2018) → Order 21 CPC; HC where value/seat/statutory route warrants. Procedure & stageAward + notice-of-award/delivery proof + S.34 status → execution petition with attachment/sale/garnishee prayers → objections (S.47 CPC principles) → proceed to realisation. RemedyEnforcement by attachment, sale, delivery or garnishee; interest as per award – subject to court orders. High Court connectionHigh-value/seat-specific execution and execution-appeal track; routine execution in civil/commercial court as feeder. Documents normally requiredAward, notice of award, S.34 order/status, payment proofs, asset details, EC. LimitationExecution within limitation; move promptly once the S.34 window (3 months + 30 days) closes or the challenge is refused. **Related:** S.34 challenge; S.37; MSEFC 75% deposit; Order 21 CPC execution. **Execute while S.34 is pending?** The award is enforceable unless the court stays; strategy screened case-wise. ## Mediation — pre-institution (Section 12A) and court-referred ### Mediation — pre-institution (Section 12A) and court-referred commercial disputes Court refers contract/IP/recovery dispute to mediation; client unprepared. What it involvesSMEs, founders, suppliers. Relevant lawMediation Act 2023 (S.5 pre-litigation and S.18 time-limit apply only once notified in force) + DLSA/KELSA procedure; Commercial Courts 12A linkage. ForumDLSA/mediator; settlement = decree. Procedure & stageBrief + authority letter + opening offer zone + documents bundle → sessions → settlement/non-starter → court record. RemedyEnforceable settlement with cost/time saving. High Court connectionHC-annexed mediation where HC refers support. Documents normally requiredClaim/counter working, ledger, key mails, ID/authority. LimitationMediation window as fixed by the referring court/mediation rules; S.12A pre-institution mediation 3 + 2 months – diary. **Related:** 12A; S.147 compounding analogy. **Settlement forced?** No – voluntary; non-starter returns to court with time excluded. ## Insolvency notices and NCLT matters ### IBC Sec 8 demand (operational creditor) — demand notice drafting Unpaid vendor/service invoice vs company; needs NCLT pressure. What it involvesOperational creditors (suppliers, service providers). Relevant lawIBC Sec 8-9; minimum default Rs.1 crore (S.4 IBC; raised from Rs.1 lakh by S.O. 1205(E) w.e.f. 24.03.2020) + dispute bar. ForumDemand to debtor; NCLT Sec 9 application – appearance there is referred to counsel who practise before it. Procedure & stageInvoices + delivery + bank + email trail → Sec 8 Form 3/4 demand (10-day reply window – S.8(2)) → debtor reply audit (dispute? payment?) → referral for Sec 9 if no pre-existing dispute. RemedyAdmission/CIRP trigger or settlement. High Court connectionWrit only for jurisdictional error; merits in NCLT/NCLAT. Documents normally requiredInvoices, PO, delivery/LR, ledger, demand mails, debtor reply. LimitationSec 8 10-day reply; Sec 9 after – diary; 3-year limitation for debt. **Related:** MSEFC 75% deposit; S.34 challenge; arbitration execution. **Disputed invoice – IBC works?** No – pre-existing dispute defeats Sec 9. ### Personal-guarantor insolvency (IBC) — response brief and NCLT referral Bank invokes personal-guarantor insolvency alongside SARFAESI. What it involvesPromoter-guarantors. Relevant lawIBC Part III (Secs 94-121); for personal guarantors to corporate debtors the Adjudicating Authority is the NCLT (S.60(1)). ForumNCLT – appearance there is referred to counsel who practise before it. Procedure & stageDemand audit → repayment-plan/interim-moratorium brief → referral to IBC counsel; SARFAESI/HC track coordinated. RemedyMoratorium, plan, discharge. High Court connectionWrit only for jurisdictional error; merits in NCLT/NCLAT. Documents normally requiredGuarantee, demands, assets/liabilities, ITR, SARFAESI notices. LimitationReply within demand window; moratorium diary via counsel. **Related:** Guarantor exposure; SARFAESI SA 45-day; recovery execution. **Does PG-insolvency stop SARFAESI vs company?** Moratorium scope litigated. ### NCLT orders — NCLAT appeal referral and High Court writ limits Adverse National Company Law Tribunal order affecting company, creditor, or director. What it involvesNCLT-record assessment, appellate-forum mapping, HC-support scope advice. Relevant lawCompanies Act, 2013 / IBC, 2016 appellate provisions (primary only; referral). ForumNCLAT is the appellate forum — referral. High Court of Kerala writ only in narrow jurisdictional-void cases (exception pleading). Procedure & stageChamber assessment → referral drafting for NCLAT counsel where appeal lies. RemedyInterim/final relief pursued before NCLAT; HC writ not the routine route. High Court connectionLimited HC connection; chamber provides assessment and referral brief, not routine NCLT appeals before HC. Documents normally requiredNCLT order, company/creditor papers, tribunal record. LimitationAppeal to NCLAT: Companies Act S. 421(3) — 45 days from the date a copy of the order is made available, plus up to 45 days on sufficient cause; IBC S. 61(2) — 30 days, plus up to 15 days on sufficient cause; limitation strictly tracked. **Related:** Contract/tender advisory for underlying commercial facts. **Can HC set aside NCLT orders routinely?** No — NCLAT jurisdiction. **What does the chamber do?** Assessment, limitation protection, and referral brief. FAQ ## Arbitration, mediation and insolvency: common questions **Can I get interim relief before the arbitration starts?** Yes. Section 9 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act allows the District Court or the High Court to protect goods, money or property before the tribunal is formed. Arbitration must then begin within 90 days of the order, or any further time the court allows. **The other side will not agree on an arbitrator. What now?** Apply to the High Court of Kerala under Section 11 for appointment of the arbitrator in a domestic arbitration. The limitation for the claim itself — generally three years from the cause of action — runs regardless, so the claim is protected while the appointment is pending. **How long do I have to challenge an arbitral award?** Three months from receiving the award, extendable by 30 days only on sufficient cause, under Section 34. The grounds are narrow: patent illegality, conflict with public policy and procedural defects. An MSEFC award challenge also needs a deposit of 75% of the award.
