Arbitral sittings at Cuttack, chosen merely for the arbitrator's convenience, constituted a venue rather than the juridical seat and did not give Cuttack courts supervisory jurisdiction. An arbitrator's appointment by a High Court exercising statewide jurisdiction did not confine jurisdiction to courts at its location or trigger exclusive jurisdiction under Section 42 on that basis. The contractual forum clause made the District Judge where the work was executed competent to hear applications to set aside the award. Applications filed within the prescribed three-month period were not time-barred.
