Order

The court dismissed HDB Financial Services' execution case against Sumit Kumar and Shambhu Singh, holding that the underlying arbitral award dated 15.11.2021 was void ab initio because it was issued by a sole arbitrator appointed unilaterally by the decree holder. The court found that such unilateral appointment violates principles of arbitrator independence and impartiality, making the award unenforceable under established Supreme Court precedents on arbitrator eligibility. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
