casestatus.in Summary

Summary: K. Marappan v. The Superintending Engineer (C.A. No. 000159-000170/2010) The Supreme Court of India partially allowed appeals by contractor K. Marappan (deceased, through legal representative) against a High Court judgment that had set aside most arbitration awards for irrigation works contracts. Key Holdings: Claim No. 1 (Extra Lead): The Court upheld the arbitrator's award for additional transportation costs when the contractor was forced to quarry stone from a location farther than contractually specified. The award was restored with interest, to be paid within two months. Claims No. 3 & 4 (Food Grains & Cement): The Court rejected these claims. While acknowledging contractual obligations regarding supply, the Court found: - For food grains: no substantiated evidence of actual purchases at market rates - For cement: insufficient documentary proof (missing ledgers, vouchers) and lack of authorization to purchase from outside sources Claim No. 7 (Accumulated Materials): Rejected as the contractor neither used the materials nor produced evidence of assurance for future work entitlement. Claim No. 9 (Interest): The Court restored the arbitrator's award of 12% interest from the claim date, clarifying that arbitrators possess power to award interest pendente lite (during proceedings) when disputes are referred to them. Critical Legal Principle: Clause 59 bars compensation for delays from "any cause whatsoever," but claims not inherently delay-related may still be pursued if substantiated with proper documentary evidence.
