    Case Summary: ARBA/30/2021 The High Court of Bombay at Aurangabad dismissed the irrigation corporation's arbitration appeals against a contractor's claims for work renovation. The court rejected the appellant's jurisdictional challenge, finding the Principal District Judge had proper jurisdiction since the dispute value (Rs. 11,31,441) fell below the Rs. 50 lakh commercial court threshold. On limitation grounds, the court held that the limitation period under Article 18 of the Limitation Act commenced from the final bill payment date (01.09.1999) or denial thereof, not contract completion, making the arbitration notice issued on 19.02.2000 timely and within the three-year limitation period.
