The Court applied the plain meaning of the statutory language, held that clear words could not be enlarged by interpretation, and refused to supply any omitted category as a casus omissus. A reference to arbitration made during execution proceedings was therefore without jurisdiction, and the award or proceedings founded on it were not binding on the judgment-debtor. The appeal was allowed and the impugned order was set aside. en-us Mon, 16 Jul 1962 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 29 Sep 2017 18:04:20 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=194841 Section 21 of the Arbitration Act, 1940 was confined to a pending suit instituted by plaint and did not extend to execution proceedings.
