https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=171944 Under Section 34 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, a court may set aside an arbitral award only in part where the valid and invalid portions are severable. The Act's scheme of minimal intervention and finality does not require total annulment merely because one segment is vulnerable, and Section 34(4) supports curing defects rather than mechanically invalidating sustainable findings. The proviso to Section 34(2)(a)(iv) is primarily attached to that clause, but it does not confine the broader power under Section 34; instead, it reinforces a severability-based approach where the matters can be rationally separated. en-us Fri, 27 Nov 2009 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 11 Aug 2015 10:43:45 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=171944 Under Section 34 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, a court may set aside an arbitral award only in part where the valid and invalid portions are severable.
