casestatus.in Summary

CASE SUMMARY: The Supreme Court dismissed NHAI's appeals challenging an arbitral award on the Allahabad Bypass Project contract. The court upheld the arbitral tribunal's three claims: (1) Rs. 2.69 crore for additional royalty and sales tax costs on materials, (2) Rs. 3.47 crore for embankment construction work (by majority decision), and (3) Rs. 3.77 crore for forest transit fee increases. The court held that increased statutory levies fall under contract clause 70.8 (separate from WPI-based adjustments) and that embankment work was validly claimed; the tribunal's reasonable contract interpretation cannot be overturned under Section 34 of the Arbitration Act. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
