JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) Interlocutory Application No.3 of 2011 has been filed by
SSANGYONG Engineering & Construction Company Limited in
disposed of Civil Appeal No.7562 of 2011, seeking
clarification and correction of certain clerical errors inthe judgment passed by this Court on 1
st
September, 2011,
under Order XIII Rule 3 of the Supreme Court Rules, 1966.
(2.) Mr. Dharmendra Rautray, learned Advocate-on-Record, who
had earlier appeared for SSANGYONG Engineering &
Construction Company Limited, submitted that in paragraph 5
of the aforesaid judgment it had been mentioned that his
clients had filed an application before the Sole Arbitrator
on 5
th
June, 2010, for interim relief under Section 17 of the
Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996. Mr. Rautray pointed
out that the said application had been made not under
Section 17 of the above Act, but under Rule 24 of the SIAC
Rules and the same would be evident from the application
made before the sole Arbitrator in SIAC Arbitration No.37 of
2010, by the Respondent, being Annexure-B to the present
application.
(3.) Mr. Rautray then submitted that through inadvertence, in
paragraph 35 of the judgment, it has been indicated that
there was no ambiguity that the SIAC Rules would be the
Curial law of the arbitration proceedings and that the samehad been subsequently clarified in paragraph 37, wherein
while indicating that the arbitration proceedings would be
governed by the SIAC Rules as the Curial law, which included
Rule 32, which made it clear that where the seat of
arbitration is Singapore, the law of the arbitration under
the SIAC Rules would be the International Arbitration Act
(Cap. 143A, 2002 Ed, Statutes of the Republic of Singapore).
Mr. Rautray submitted that it was a clear case of
inadvertence in paragraph 35 that needs to be clarified by
indicating that the Curial law is the International
Arbitration law of Singapore and not the SIAC rules.;
