Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. {'text': 'The award must be written and stamped on stamp paper of prescribed value, signed by the members of the tribunal, and dated', 'label': 'A'}
1. Lesson 13's "Features of Arbitral award" table lists eight features:
1. Written and stamped (on stamp paper of prescribed value at place of making); 2. Signed by members of the tribunal; 3. Reasoned (with two exceptions); 4. Dated; 5. Mention of place; 6. Clarity of value and interest; 7. Cost of arbitration; 8. Delivery of copies.
2. Hence option (A) captures three of those features correctly.
3. The other options describe duties not in the Act.
