Speaking at the inaugural session of the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) South Asia Conference, 2023 Senior Advocate, Fali S Nariman, said that India’s Arbitration law is in a ‘chronic state of animated suspension’.

In the event held on September 14, Nariman said that when the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 was enacted it largely conformed to the UNCITRAL model law adopted by the U.N General Assembly in 1985. However, since the subsequent amendments, the 1996 Act ‘went off the rails’, he remarked.

The Supreme Court recently reiterated the distinction between simpliciter termination and punitive termination. This distinction is crucial since if if the order of termination is punitive or stigmatic in nature, it becomes mandatory to conduct an inquiry following the procedure and an opportunity to be heard has to be given.

Failure to do so may make such termination/discharge illegal and in violation of principles of natural justice.
