M/S. HOUSING & URBAN DEVELOPMENT CORPN. vs M/S. DSA ENGINEERS (BOMBAY) . — SLP(C) No. 4019/2002

Summary: HUDC challenged an arbitration award on grounds that the arbitral tribunal was improperly constituted under the 1996 Arbitration Act (even number of arbitrators instead of odd). The Supreme Court dismissed the SLP, holding that a party cannot challenge the tribunal's composition if no objection was raised at the earliest opportunity, following the binding 3-Judge Bench precedent in Narayan Prasad Lohia v. Nikunj Kumar Lohia. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
