Alternative dispute resolution: Interim MeasuresRittika Dattana
This document provides an overview of interim measures in arbitration proceedings under the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act of 1996. It defines interim measures as temporary relief granted pending the final resolution of a dispute. Section 9 of the Act allows parties to approach courts to seek interim measures to preserve assets or evidence. The document discusses the types of interim measures available, including injunctive relief, attachment orders, and appointing receivers. It analyzes the scope of interim measures under Section 9 and their purpose of safeguarding parties from harm due to delays in the arbitration process.
This presentation discusses the question as to whether a statute on mediation is required to be enacted in India. It argues that an ADR code has to be enacted so that dispute and its resolution are seen holistically.
The document provides an overview of statutory interpretation and the legislative process in Canada. It discusses the anatomy of an act, the seven steps to statutory interpretation, and extrinsic aids to interpretation such as legislative history and administrative interpretation. The legislative process involves bills going through several readings and stages in the legislative chambers. When interpreting statutes, the modern principle is to read the words in their entire context and legislative intent.

Supreme Court of India has encapsulated six ingredients of a foreign (New York Convention) award that will be enforceable in India. The Supreme Court in GEMINI BAY v. INTEGRATED SALES (SC 2021, 2 JJ) at paragraph 29 has listed out these six ingredients based on S.44 of the Arbitration & Conciliation Act, 1996.
This document provides an overview of contract damages under Indian law. It discusses key principles:
1. Damages are awarded to compensate the injured party for losses from a breach of contract. Compensatory damages aim to put the party in the same position as if the contract was performed.
2. Under the rule in Hadley v. Baxendale, damages must arise naturally from the breach or have been reasonably contemplated by the parties. Lost profits are allowed if the loss was in the reasonable contemplation of parties.
3. Liquidated damages clauses stipulating a pre-estimate of damages are enforceable up to a reasonable amount. Penalty clauses that impose damages disproportionate to the loss are not enforced
