Arbitration
Mr. Sood appears in arbitration-related proceedings where the legal issues call for precise statutory interpretation or procedural clarity. His role is confined to court appearances in matters such as interim relief, enforcement of awards, and challenges under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act. He does not serve as an arbitrator or engage in institutional administration of arbitration proceedings.
He is typically briefed when arbitration intersects with public law concerns, involves jurisdictional complexity, or raises substantive legal questions. These may include challenges based on public policy, disputes over arbitral jurisdiction, or conflicts between multiple legal frameworks.
His interest in this domain lies in preserving the legal integrity of arbitral processes, ensuring that courts do not overstep their role, and that arbitral awards are tested only on principles that the law permits.
