Administrative Law \u2014 Administrative Action \u2014 Administrative or Executive Function \u2014 High Officials Holding\/Exercising Discretionary Powers: <\/b>The power vested in authority must be discharged in accordance with constitutional principles and statutory rules\/regulations governing the field regardless of rank\/office held by officer(s) concerned. Furthermore, judicial scrutiny of decision does not depend on rank\/position of decision-maker. [Nalin Kumar Bhatia v. Union of India, <\/span>(2020) 4 SCC 78<\/a>]<\/span><\/p>\n

Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 \u2014 Ss. 2(2), 2(1)(e) & (f), 2(4), (5) & (7), 20, 9, 42 and Pt. I or Pt. II:<\/b> Juridical or legal seat of arbitration once designated or determined, held, explaining and following five-judge Bench decision in BALCO<\/i>, (2012) 9 SCC 552<\/a>, exclusively <\/i>determines which courts will have jurisdiction over the arbitration, as opposed to the place where whole or part of the cause of action arises. A&C Act, 1996 has accepted the territoriality principle in S. 2(2). Thus, once <\/i>the seat of arbitration is designated or determined, the same operates as an exclusive jurisdiction clause as a result of which only <\/i>the courts where the seat is located would have jurisdiction over the arbitration, to the exclusion of all other courts, even courts where part of the cause of action may have arisen. However, held, where it is found on the facts of a particular case that either no \u201cseat\u201d is designated by agreement, or has not been so determined by the Arbitral Tribunal, or the so-called \u201cseat\u201d is only a convenient \u201cvenue\u201d, then there may be several courts where a part of the cause of action arises, that may have jurisdiction over the arbitration. Hence, an application under S. 9 of the A&C Act may be preferred before a court in which part of the cause of action arises in a case where parties have not agreed on the \u201cseat\u201d of arbitration, and before such \u201cseat\u201d may have been determined, on the facts of a particular case, by the Arbitral Tribunal under S. 20(2) of the A&C Act.

Thus, freezing of assets of a person not belonging to the company whose affairs are alleged as being mismanaged\/fraudulently conducted, held, is impermissible. [Usha Ananthasubramanian v.

Court\u2019s Interference with Arbitral Awards:<\/b> The object of this article is to discuss the scope of interference of court in arbitration proceedings with reference to ONGC Ltd. v.

Criminal Procedure Code, 1973 \u2014 S. 173(8):<\/b> Hearing of accused by court before direction for further investigation is made, held, is not obligatory. The power of court to direct police to conduct further investigation cannot have any inhibition. There is nothing in S. 173(8) to suggest, that court is obliged to hear accused before any such direction is made. The casting of any such obligation on court would only result in encumbering court with burden of searching for all potential accused to be afforded with opportunity of being heard. As law does not require it, Magistrate cannot be burdened with such obligation. [Satishkumar Nyalchand Shah v. State of Gujarat, <\/span>(2020) 4 SCC 22<\/a>]<\/span><\/p>\n

Criminal Procedure Code, 1973 \u2014 Ss. 340 and 195(1)(b):<\/b> In this case of perjury before Supreme Court, Secretary General was directed to institute proceedings therefor under Ss. 193 and 199 IPC for filing of altered\/modified documents before Supreme Court by the petitioner Company.

Employees\u2019 Compensation Act, 1923 \u2014 S. 3(1) \u2014 Accident arising out of and in course of employment \u2014 Principle of notional extension of \u201ccourse of employment\u201d at both point of entry and exit in time and space \u2014 Extent to which may be applied:<\/b> In this case, deceased aged 21 years driver, having to drive a truck for an approximately 200 km route, on a hot summer day stopped by a canal to fetch water and also to have a bath, unfortunately, slipped into canal and died. The Court held that taking judicial notice of extreme hot weather and manufacturer specification stating non-availability of air conditioning in truck cabin and compulsion for deceased to stay fresh and alert not only to protect truck from damage but also to ensure smooth journey and protect his own life, possible need for a bath or water to cool down engine could be considered as incidental to employment by extension of notional employment theory. Order of High Court were held unsustainable and set aside. Order of Commissioner dt. 12-12-2005 restored and payments in terms of said order directed to be made to appellants within six weeks.

Enforcement of Arbitral Awards:<\/b> The author in this article emphasis that the judgment in Pam Developments (P) Ltd. v. State of W.B., (2019) 8 SCC 112 underlines the \u201crule of law\u201d in the \u201cdemocratic republic\u201d of India. It brings the Indian arbitral process as well as the Indian court system much closer to the desired international standard of fair and equal treatment to all parties in a dispute. It should serve as a great re-assurance to all spectators of foreign investment who have been seeking a \u201clevel playing field\u201d in international and even domestic commercial arbitrations in India.

Essential Commodities and Services \u2014 Fixation of Price \u2014 Classification \u2014 Permissibility:<\/b> In this case, there was fixation of price for levy sugar zone-wise for crushing years 1984-85 and 1985-86 and parity was claimed on basis of similarly placed sugar factories in same district. The Supreme Court held that merely because there is difference in price in Central Zone and Eastern Zone, appellant cannot claim as a matter of right that its unit should be placed in Eastern Zone instead of Central Zone during relevant years or claim parity with other units only on ground that all units are situated in same District. Besides, price fixation in respective zones was based on exhaustive study by experts and conclusions reached by Central Government in exercise of statutory power, cannot be said to be either discriminatory or unreasonable. Moreover, fact that appellant\u2019s unit was placed in Eastern Zone subsequently was inconsequential since said policy decision was subject to satisfaction of Government by taking into account expert reports and does not constitute discrimination.

Information Technology Act, 2000 \u2014 S. 79 (as it stood prior to its substitution w.e.f. 27-10-2009) \u2014 Intermediary (ISP) \u2014 Safe harbour principle \u2014 Scope of immunity\u2014 Criminal liability under general law:<\/b> The unamended S. 79 is not a bar to prosecution for commission of the offence of defamation under Ss. 499\/500 IPC. Immunity available under S. 79 of the IT Act, 2000, prior to its substitution, was limited to the exemption to the intermediary from any liability under IT Act, 2000 and the Rules or Regulations framed under IT Act, 2000, in regard to third-party information or data made available by the intermediary. However, immunity under unamended S. 79 did not extend to exemption from criminal liability under the general law. Thus, held, unamended S. 79, did not protect an intermediary in regard to the offence under Ss. 499\/500 IPC. [Google India (P) Ltd. v.

Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 \u2014 S. 149(2)(a) \u2014 Vehicle involved in accident driven by insured owner\u2019s driver not having a valid\/genuine licence \u2014 Insurer\u2019s liability to pay under the policy concerned in such a case:<\/b> While hiring a driver the employer is expected to verify if the driver has a driving licence but if the driver produces a licence which on the face of it looks genuine, the employer is not expected to further investigate into the authenticity of the licence unless there is cause to believe otherwise. Further, if the employer finds the driver to be competent to drive the vehicle and has satisfied himself that the driver has a driving licence there would be no breach of S. 149(2)(a)(ii) of the MV Act and the insurance company would be liable under the policy. It would be unreasonable to place such a high onus on the insured to make enquiries with RTOs all over the country to ascertain the veracity of the driving licence. However, if the insurance company is able to prove that the owner\/insured was aware or had notice that the licence was fake or invalid and still permitted the person to drive, the insurance company would no longer continue to be liable.

Motor Vehicles Act, 1988 \u2014 Ss. 166 and 168 \u2014 Compensation \u2014 Computation of income \u2014 Income from assets \u2014 Depletion of net income as a factor:<\/b> Though a court may be required to account for the depletion in the net income accruing from the assets of the deceased on account of payments for engaging managers, etc. evidence must be adduced to compute the depletion. As no such evidence was adduced in this case, hence, claimants could not claim any benefit thereof. [Malarvizhi v. United India Insurance Co. Ltd., <\/span>(2020) 4 SCC 228<\/a>]<\/span><\/p>\n

However, evidence\/deposition of sole eyewitness was full of material contradictions, omissions and improvements so far as said co-accused (appellants herein) were concerned. The Supreme Court held that the accused were entitled of benefit of doubt. Hence, conviction was reversed. [Parvat Singh v. State of M.P., <\/span>(2020) 4 SCC 33<\/a>]<\/span><\/p>\n

Service Law \u2014 Recruitment Process \u2014 Eligibility criteria\/conditions \u2014 Equivalence of qualifications:<\/b> In this case, eligibility criteria for recruitment to post of Technician Grade II in U.P.
