Section 34 can't Be Used To Seek Re-Litigation : Delhi High Court

The Delhi High Court ruled that Section 34 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act cannot be used to re-litigate or seek re-examination of an arbitral award. This provision is intended solely for challenging the award on grounds of legal or procedural errors and does not allow for revisiting the merits of the case. The court emphasized that parties dissatisfied with the arbitral decision should use the appropriate legal channels rather than trying to re-litigate through this section. This ruling underscores the limitation of Section 34 to ensure finality and efficiency in arbitration proceedings.
