Boxco Logistics India Private Limited vs Sarr Freight Corporation

By an order dated October 1, 2020, a Learned Sole Arbitrator came to be appointed by the Learned Single Judge of this Court in exercise of powers under Section 11 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 ( “the Act” ) moved by the same Applicant. Since it took the Applicant, a resort to Section 11 to have the arbitrator appointed, it is apparent that the Respondent has forfeited a right to have the say in who the arbitrator should be.

The Learned Sole Arbitrator is now unable to perform as an arbitrator. Consequently, this Application has been taken out. In these circumstances, this Application has been finally disposed of in the following terms:-
