Section 11 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 - The Supreme Court's jurisdiction under Section 11(6) is primarily administrative and limited to appointing arbitrators when parties fail to do so. The Court's power is confined to procedural aspects and cannot delve into the merits of the dispute. Rodemadan India LTD. VS International Trade Expo Centre LTD. - Supreme Court, Moksh Innovations Inc. Lko. Thru. Manager Jitendra Singh Bisht VS E City Property Management And Services (P) Ltd. New Delhi Thru. Property Manager - Allahabad, Sanjiv Prakash VS Seema Kukreja - Supreme Court
Judgments and Key Cases - The Supreme Court has clarified that its role under Section 11 is to facilitate arbitration by appointing arbitrators, especially in cases of default or deadlock, and not to adjudicate on substantive issues. Notably, in the case of Bhatia International and Bharat Aluminium Company, the Court overruled certain broad interpretations, emphasizing the limited scope of judicial intervention under Section 11. Konkola Copper Mines VS Stewarts and Lloyds of India Limited - Bombay
Procedural Developments and Amendments - The 2019 Amendment Act clarified and reaffirmed the Court's limited jurisdiction under Section 11(6), emphasizing that the Court's role is to appoint arbitrators and not to decide on the validity of arbitration clauses or the substantive arbitrability of disputes. The amendments also addressed the interplay between Sections 11, 15, and 12, maintaining the Court's administrative role. Moksh Innovations Inc. Lko. Thru. Manager Jitendra Singh Bisht VS E City Property Management And Services (P) Ltd. New Delhi Thru. Property Manager - Allahabad
Application and Practice - Courts have consistently held that applications under Section 11 are procedural and do not involve merits or substantive issues. The process involves the Court appointing arbitrators based on the arbitration agreement or default, with the scope being strictly limited to administrative functions.

The Supreme Court's judgments reinforce that Section 11 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, grants the Court a limited, administrative role in appointing arbitrators, especially in cases of default or deadlock. The Court cannot adjudicate on substantive disputes or arbitration agreement validity under this section. Recent amendments and case law emphasize the narrow scope of judicial intervention, ensuring that arbitration remains a swift and specialized process.
