Summary of SLP(C) No. 7765/2004 The Supreme Court dismissed M/S. M.S. Commercial's Special Leave Petition against Calicut Engineering Works Ltd. The petitioners had challenged an arbitrator's decision upholding an arbitration agreement, seeking to cross-examine the handwriting expert or present alternative expert evidence after the arbitrator had already ruled on the agreement's existence. The Court held that once the arbitrator decided the arbitration agreement existed, petitioners could only challenge the final arbitral award under Section 34 of the Arbitration Act, not seek further evidence at that stage.
