ABOUT THE WEBINAR

The recent years have seen an increasing inclination to Arbitration as an effective mode of dispute resolution, considering its effectiveness and timely resolution of disputes between parties. The Indian Government, to provide greater certainty to international investors in India, has subjected the Arbitration laws to some important amendments in 2015 and 2019. However, what are these amendments and how do they contribute to making the arbitration process in India better than before? This is what this webinar focuses on where you will get a deep insight into the amendments to arbitration laws, and how these amendments can shape the dispute resolution in India for the future.
