    <title>Enforcement of foreign arbitral award upheld; Section 48 objections rejected and award declared enforceable under Sections 47-49</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=93720</link>
    <description>The HC allowed enforcement of the foreign arbitral award against the respondents, holding that objections under Section 48 were untenable. The Court found the award did not direct a company &quot;buyback of shares&quot; and rejected attempts to treat surrender of shares as such. Challenges based on the doctrine of election, alleged contravention of Section 16(b) or Sections 10(b)/14(1)(a)/20 of the Specific Relief Act, waiver, improper delegation, non-consideration of material issues, and alleged fraud were dismissed as merits-based re-appraisals improper in enforcement proceedings or as insufficiently pleaded. Transnational issue-estoppel and comity considerations were acknowledged, but did not preclude enforcement; petition dismissed and award declared enforceable under Sections 47-49.</description>
