STATUTORY ARBITRATIONS

Statutory Arbitrations

Where Disputes Find Resolution, Trust, and Fairness

DAC conducts the statutory arbitration proceedings in cases marked directly by the Government authorities for conduct of arbitration between the parties as a part of statute. 'Statutory Arbitrations' are arbitrations conducted in accordance with the provisions of certain special Acts which provide for arbitration in respect of disputes arising on matters covered by those Acts. There are about 24 such Central Acts. Many State Acts also provide for arbitration in respect of disputes covered by those Acts, including Acts relating to co-operative societies.

This Part except sub-section (1) of section 40, sections 41 and 43 shall apply to every arbitration under any other enactment for the time being in force, as if the arbitration were pursuant to an arbitration agreement and as if that other enactment were an arbitration agreement, except in so far as the provisions of this Part are inconsistent with that other enactment or with any rules made thereunder.
