A Single Judge Bench of Justice Suresh Kumar Kait of the High Court of Delhi reiterated that the choice of venue is also a choice of the seat of arbitration. In this case, the parties had agreed that the venue of arbitration shall be Lucknow and therefore, the Court held that the courts at Lucknow shall have the exclusive jurisdiction to entertain the disputes arising out of the Agreement in question. The Agreement also stipulated that the arbitration shall be held in accordance with the Rules of ICADR but soon thereafter it followed the condition that the venue of arbitration shall be Lucknow. Hence, the Court held that the role of ICADR Rules shall come into play with regard to the procedure to be followed, only after the arbitration commences before the appropriate jurisdiction of law, which in this case was Lucknow.
