https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=299450 Section 34(3) of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act prescribes a three-month limitation period to challenge an arbitral award, with a further thirty days available only on sufficient cause and not thereafter. The Court held that the exclusionary words in the provision displace the general closed-court extension under Section 4 of the Limitation Act for any filing beyond that statutory cap. For Section 4, the relevant "prescribed period" is the initial three months, not the additional discretionary thirty days. Accordingly, the vacation reopening of court could not extend time for an application filed after expiry of the three-month period. en-us Thu, 19 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 21 Oct 2023 11:19:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=299450 Section 34(3) of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act prescribes a three-month limitation period to challenge an arbitral award, with a further thirty days available only on sufficient cause and not thereafter.
