The President of India has promulgated two ordianances bringing into force sweeping amendments to the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 and introducing Commercial Courts (see our previous post on the previous Commercial Divisions Bill) in every District in India. The Ordinances can be accessed from here and here. If these amendments are passed subsequently in the Winter Session of the Parliament, these developments are likely to go a long way in reforming commercial dispute resolution in India. Once reforms on procedural law are in place and effective, India can look at reforming its substantive contract law. An extremely interesting period for Indian commercial law.
