https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=360500 Civil courts may retain limited jurisdiction over treaty-based investment arbitration disputes where Indian jurisdiction is otherwise made out, but there is no inherent statutory bar to considering such matters. An investor-state arbitration agreement derived from a treaty is treated as a sui generis contractual arrangement, not a treaty itself. Anti-arbitration injunctions may issue only in exceptional cases of clear oppression, vexation or abuse, and multiple claims within a vertical corporate group are not per se abusive where consolidation can address duplication risks. Once the treaty tribunal is constituted, objections to abuse and jurisdiction should ordinarily be raised there under kompetenz-kompetenz, so the interim restraint was vacated and the suit became infructuous. en-us Mon, 07 May 2018 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 17 May 2018 18:19:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=360500 Civil courts may retain limited jurisdiction over treaty-based investment arbitration disputes where Indian jurisdiction is otherwise made out, but there is no inherent statutory bar to considering such matters.
