D{'text': 'Ninety days from the date of such order or within such further time as the Court may determine', 'label': 'D'}
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. {'text': 'Ninety days from the date of such order or within such further time as the Court may determine', 'label': 'D'}
1. Section 9(2) of the Act, as reproduced in Lesson 13, provides that arbitral proceedings must commence within **ninety days from the date of the interim-protection order** under sub-section (1), or within such further time as the Court may determine. 2. The 90-day rule was inserted by the 2015 Amendment to prevent pre-arbitral interim orders becoming standalone relief. 3. Section 9(3) further restricts the Court's entertaining of interim applications once the tribunal is constituted unless Section 17 remedies would be inefficacious. _Source: ICSI CS Executive Paper 1 — Jurisprudence, Interpretation & General Laws, Lesson 13 (Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996), pp. 297-303._
