SLP(C) No. 004449/2006 — M.T.N.L. v. Singhal & Bros. Engr. & Contractors Summary: On 11/02/2008, the Supreme Court heard MTNL's special leave petition against the Bombay High Court's order dated 27/04/2005. MTNL argued that a subsequent seven-judge bench decision (SBP & Co. v. Patel Engineering) had changed the legal position regarding arbitrator appointments from administrative to judicial orders, affecting limitation periods. The Court declined to interfere with the High Court's order since the new judgment was prospective only. The petition was disposed with a direction permitting MTNL to appoint a fresh arbitrator (the previous one having resigned) and proceed according to law, leaving all substantive questions open for the newly appointed arbitrator.
