- 1 - VPH IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY ORDINARY ORIGINAL CIVIL JURISDICTION APPEAL No. 205 OF 2007 IN ARBITRATION PETITION No. 132 OF 2006 M/s. Bengal Chemicals & Pharmaceuticals Ltd. .. Appellant Vs. Ion Exchange (India) Ltd. & Anr. ..Respondents Mr. S. K. Chori i/b M. V. Kini & Co., for the Appellant. Mr. V. M. Mahajan, for Respondent No.1. CORAM : D. K DESHMUKH AND Smt. R. P. SONDURBALDOTA , JJ DATED : JUNE 29, 2010. P.C. : 1. By this appeal, appellant challenges the order passed by the learned Single Judge in Arbitration Petition No. 132 of 2006 under section 34 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, dismissing the petition filed by the petitioner, challenging the award made by the sole Arbitrator. The petitioner admittedly after having been given repeatedly time to file reply, has not filed reply before the Arbitrator. The Arbitrator - 2 - has made award after perusing the evidence placed on record. The learned Single Judge considering the limited jurisdiction of the Court under section 34 of the Act, declined to interfere with the award. The learned Single Judge has also, in our opinion, rightly declined to interfere with the award, looking to the conduct of the appellant of not even filing his reply, despite being given ample opportunity. Therefore, in our opinion, no interference is called for with the order of the learned Single Judge. In the result, appeal is dismissed. Sd/- Sd/- [Smt. R. P. SONDURBALDOTA , J.] [D. K DESHMUKH , J.]
