The unclaimed envelope is treated as deemed service and refusal to accept delivery, so limitation for a challenge under Section 34(3) begins from that deemed date of service. The Court also held that time to obtain a certified copy cannot be excluded under Section 12(2) of the Limitation Act because the Arbitration and Conciliation Act operates as a self-contained code on this point. The challenge was therefore barred by limitation. en-us Wed, 22 Jun 2016 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 09 Sep 2022 07:02:43 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=304121 Service of a signed arbitral award is complete under Section 31(5) of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 when it is sent to the party's correct recorded address and the addressee fails to collect it after postal intimation.
