Section 36 Arbitration Act 1996 (amended 2015 and 2019) provides for ENFORCEMENT of award:

Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D.
1. Section 36 Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996 (substituted by 2015 Amendment) provides for ENFORCEMENT of arbitral awards. 2. (1) Where the time for making an application to set aside the arbitral award under section 34 has expired, OR such application has been refused, the award shall be ENFORCED in accordance with the provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, in the same manner as if it were a DECREE of the court. 3. Section 36(2): A challenge under Section 34 does NOT AUTOMATICALLY stay enforcement of the award (2015 amendment, reversing Vol. v. CWLP and other decisions). 4. Section 36(3): The court may, upon application, GRANT STAY on award enforcement; (a) where it relates to PAYMENT OF MONEY, court shall have due regard to the provisions for grant of stay of money decree under CPC and require SECURITY/Deposit. 5. (b) If court is satisfied that PRIMA FACIE the making of the award was induced or affected by FRAUD or CORRUPTION (or contravenes Section 75 public policy), it may grant an UNCONDITIONAL STAY. 6. Hence option A is correct. _Source: Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996 (Bare Act) + Mediation Act 2023 — Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996, Section 36 (substituted 2015 and 2019)_
