This article discusses the legal issues arising in the course of enforcement of foreign awards in India. The concluding thesis being that current judicial trends indicate the beginnings of a much needed pro-enforcement approach and a better judicial understanding of the concept of party autonomy.

The Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 (Act) governs the law of arbitration in India.

The Act applies to both domestic and international arbitration. Part I of the Act is solely applicable to domestic awards, i.e. arbitration whose seat is in India. Part II of the Act governs the enforcement of New York Convention Awards and Geneva Convention Awards i.e. foreign awards, viz, arbitrations seated outside India.
