What's New With Novation? A Comment On Sanjiv Prakash v. Seema Kukreja & Ors


.
,
[1] recently held that the issue whether an agreement which contains an arbitration clause has or has not been novated, cannot be decided by the Courts at the Section 11 stage. The judgment is a step forward, since it clarifies the narrow scope of judicial intervention at the pre-reference stage.
Background Facts
The issue arose out of a Memorandum of Understanding executed between members of the Prakash family (i.e. the Appellant and the Respondents), who collectively held the entire share-holding of ANI Media Private Ltd. ("the Company"). The MoU
inter alia provided that in the event any members of the Prakash family were desirous of selling / bequeathing their shares, the same shall be offered to the Appellant. The MoU contained an arbitration clause, which provided for resolution of disputes by a sole arbitrator.

Question Of Novation Of Contract Cannot Be Considered In A Petition Under Section 11 Arbitration Act: Supreme Court


Share This -
x
The Supreme Court observed that the question of novation of contract containing an arbitration clause cannot be considered by the Court in a petition filed under Section 11 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act.
Detailed arguments on whether an agreement which contains an arbitration clause has or has not been novated cannot possibly be decided in exercise of a limited prima facie review as to whether an arbitration agreement exists between the parties, the bench comprising
Justices RF Nariman, BR Gavai and Hrishikesh Roy said.
The Court was considering an appeal against dismissal of a petition under Section 11 of the Act filed before the High Court of Delhi. The High Court was of the view that the memorandum of understanding [which contained the arbitration clause] ceased to exist on and from the date of the Shareholders' Agreement which superseded the aforesaid MoU and novated the same.
