To What Extent Is An Arbitration Award Made In Your Jurisdiction Enforceable In The Local Courts?

An arbitral award is enforceable after the time for making an application to set aside such an award has expired (90 days). However, the court may grant a stay on the operation of the arbitral award on a separate application made for that purpose. The party intending to enforce the award can file an execution petition before the Civil Court. The award is enforced in the same manner as a decree of the court under the Indian Code of Civil Procedure, which provides the framework for the execution of arbitral awards.
