Challenge on the grounds of patent illegality
1 If the award is passed in violation of the provisions of the Transfer of Property Act or Contract Act, it necessarily suffers from patent illegality and has to be set aside.
2 A mere wrong application of Law by Arbitrator not resulting in the perversity in the ultimate finding or decision. Award cannot be set aside.
3 Mere erroneous application of law which do not go to the root of the matter, is no ground to set aside the entire Award.
