FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Q

Is an arbitration award enforceable like a court judgment?

A

Yes. Under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, a domestic arbitral award is enforceable as a decree of the court. International awards from New York Convention countries are also enforceable in India.

Q

Can I go to arbitration without a pre-existing arbitration clause?

A

Yes. Parties can agree to refer an existing dispute to arbitration even if their contract does not contain an arbitration clause, by entering into a separate submission agreement.

Q

How long does arbitration take?

A

Simple domestic arbitrations can conclude in 6–12 months. Complex multi-party or international arbitrations may take 1–3 years. This is still significantly faster than court litigation for commercial disputes.

Q

What is mediation and how is it different from arbitration?

A

Mediation is a voluntary, non-binding process where a neutral mediator assists parties in reaching a settlement. Arbitration results in a binding award. Mediation is ideal for preserving commercial relationships; arbitration is preferable when a binding decision is required.
