The Supreme Court held that the Arbitration Act would apply in the case, even though the appellant initially approached the Arbitration Tribunal u/s 7 of the 1983 Act after the contract was rescinded. The State government did not object to the applicability of the 1983 Act during the Section 11(6) petition under the Arbitration Act. The award amount was relatively small at Rs. 6,52,235/- with interest, and setting it aside solely on the ground of failure to invoke the 1983 Act would be unjust. The appellant had initially approached the 1983 Act before seeking arbitrator appointment. The Court exercised jurisdiction under Article 142 to ensure complete justice, setting aside the impugned judgment and restoring the Section 37 appeal to the High Court for deciding on merits.
