    Judegement

    Case Summary: CMA DC No. 101/25 Decision: The court granted the applicant's petition and extended the arbitrator's mandate by one year to complete the land compensation dispute adjudication. Key Reasoning: The court found sufficient cause for extension under Section 29A(5) of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, holding that procedural delays attributable to the arbitrator's administrative duties (as Collector) rather than the applicants' actions should not defeat substantial justice. The court emphasized that refusing extension would cause multiplicity of proceedings and serious prejudice to the land-losing farmer-applicants, whose agricultural land (survey no. 118) was acquired for the Ahmedabad-Indore National Highway Project. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
