ARBITRATION –
Arbitration is a private dispute resolution process, conducted away from public scrutiny. It is a consensual process where the parties submit their disputes for resolution to an arbitral tribunal that usually is composed of one or three arbitrators. Alternative Dispute Resolution offers creative solutions to resolve your disputes. We offer both International and domestic arbitration.
TYPES OF ARBITRATION
The kinds of arbitration agreement may be categorized based on the territorial jurisdiction, i.e. the place whereby matters are being dealt with. It may also depend upon the laws agreed upon to apply on the legal relationship of parties concerned. Based on this, the types of arbitration in India are classified.
1- DOMESTIC ARBITRATION
When there is a dispute among two parties sharing a legal relationship whereby both of them are residing or located in India, such a resolution of dispute through arbitration is termed as domestic arbitration. In such cases, there is least confusion regarding applicable laws for deciding the matters. The arbitration lawyers in India help with representation of parties before the arbitration tribunal.
2- INTERNATIONAL ARBITRATION
When one of the parties belongs to countries other than India and the dispute is being resolved through arbitration as per Indian laws, it is called international arbitration. Presence of an international element is obvious in such cases. The matters under international arbitration are usually resolved beyond Indian territory.
3- INTERNATIONAL COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION
Where there is an international element in a commercial dispute whereby one of the parties (individual or body corporate) is Indian, resolution of disputes arising is done through laws as agreed upon in the contract. Where there is a lack of specific terms regarding dispute resolution or an agreement to follow Indian laws, the arbitration and mediation rules applicable in India are followed thereby. Such an arbitration process is called International commercial arbitration.
4- INSTITUTIONAL ARBITRATION
Types of arbitration include when there is a particular institution selected by the parties to contract in the arbitration clause, such an institution is responsible for dispute resolution through arbitration. In such cases, parties may not be required to go through the hassle of selecting the arbitrator while the institution takes charge for such tasks. Institutional arbitration helps efficient dispute resolution.
5- AD-HOC ARBITRATION
When there is no contractual compulsion and parties agree for deciding matters via arbitration through mutual consent, it is termed as ad-hoc arbitration. It is one of the most common types of arbitration in India. In such cases, parties to dispute may mutually decide the process to be followed during arbitration.
