The challenge by means of this First Appeal under Section<\/p>\n<p>37 of Arbitration &amp; Conciliation Act, 1996 (hereinafter referred to as<\/p>\n<p>\u201ethe Act\u201f) is to the impugned order dated 12.2.2008 by which the<\/p>\n<p>objections of the appellant under Section 34 of the Act were dismissed<\/p>\n<p>by the trial Court.       The trial Court has upheld the Award dated<\/p>\n<p>22.4.2005 passed by the sole Arbitrator acting under the Bye Laws,<\/p>\n<p>Rules and Regulations of the National Stock Exchange of India Ltd. The<\/p>\n<p>facts of the case are that the respondent\/claimant a broker filed a<\/p>\n<p>claim for recovery against the appellant\/constituent for an amount of<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">FAO No.188\/2008                                              Page 1 of 10<\/span><br \/>\n Rs.16,44,451\/- alongwith interest besides other charges for the V-SAT<\/p>\n<p>equipment installed with the appellant.    There was a relationship of<\/p>\n<p>member and constituent i.e. broker and sub-broker alleged by the<\/p>\n<p>respondent. The claim of the respondent\/member\/broker was allowed<\/p>\n<p>by the Arbitrator.   Some of the relevant findings and observations<\/p>\n<p>made by the Arbitrator are contained in paras 12, 13 and 18 to 20 and<\/p>\n<p>the same read as under:-\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>        &#8220;12.      The applicant has denied that the Agreement<br \/>\n        in question is a forged one or has been prepared by<br \/>\n        superimposing it over another agreement form.         They<br \/>\n        have submitted that certain columns were left blank<br \/>\n        initially e.g. depository participant as well as the D-Mat<br \/>\n        account which was issued later in August\/September<br \/>\n        2003 and filled in but that Respondent was well aware<br \/>\n        of these. They have also not denied that the code AK-I<br \/>\n        was allotted to Shri A.K. Jain in May, 2003 and was filled<br \/>\n        in later on to quickly identify the person, as there could<br \/>\n        be other persons by the same name. Shri Ajay Gupta,<br \/>\n        AR of Applicant has submitted that while it is correct<br \/>\n        that   one   Shri   M.M.   Verma   had   introduced    the<br \/>\n        Respondent, Shri O.P. Malik, to them, it is also a fact<br \/>\n        that in addition, Shri A.K. Jain had also introduced the<br \/>\n        Respondent whose name appears in the Introduction<br \/>\n        column in the Agreement signed by the parties. They<br \/>\n        have submitted that the portions left blank were filled in<br \/>\n        with the consent of the Respondent. According to the<br \/>\n        Applicant, Mr. Verma sometimes visited the office but<br \/>\n        never looked after the branch or introduced any client<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">FAO No.188\/2008                                           Page 2 of 10<\/span><br \/>\n        to    the   branch,   which   was     mostly   done   by   the<br \/>\n       Respondent.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>       13.         The Respondent, Shri Malik himself, has stated<br \/>\n       in his reply dated 15-12-2004 that he had met Mr. Atul<br \/>\n       Gupta, Director of the Claimant Company in November<br \/>\n       2002 as he was desirous of becoming a sub-broker. He<br \/>\n       has also submitted a document from the Punjab<br \/>\n       National Bank to show that he had issued three cheques<br \/>\n       in favour of Applicant Company on 7-2-2003, 14-2-2003<br \/>\n       and 10-3-2003 for a total amount of Rs.7.5 lacs.           The<br \/>\n       Applicant company states that Respondent actually paid<br \/>\n       Rs.8.5 lacs instead of Rs.7.5 lacs, as mentioned by<br \/>\n       Respondent which has been credited in his margin<br \/>\n       account. There is a reference by both the parties to an<br \/>\n       amount,       Rs.2,17,750\/-   which    was     paid   by   the<br \/>\n       Respondent to the Applicant.          While the respondent<br \/>\n       states that this amount was paid by cheque as security<br \/>\n       deposit for installation of V-SAT at his premises, the<br \/>\n       Applicant submits that he had agreed that the total<br \/>\n       amount shall be credited to his running account which<br \/>\n       was done, as per Respondents request (Annexure A-1).<br \/>\n       The Applicant&#8217;s AR has submitted that after adjusting<br \/>\n       these amounts as well as other amounts through sale of<br \/>\n       shares as credit amount, a balance of Rs.16,44,451.04 P<br \/>\n       is still outstanding against the Respondent which he has<br \/>\n       to pay.       The Respondent has not produced other<br \/>\n       relevant documents or controverted the above claimed<br \/>\n       amount given in the Statement of Account.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>       18.         In the reply filed by the Respondent and in the<br \/>\n       subsequent applications submitted by him during the<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">FAO No.188\/2008                                              Page 3 of 10<\/span><br \/>\n        hearing, Shri Malik has taken the plea that the<br \/>\n       Agreement dated 12-11-2002 annexed by the Applicant<br \/>\n       is a forged and fraudulent document which was never<br \/>\n       entered into between the parties. According to him the<br \/>\n       entire document has been fabricated by the Applicant<br \/>\n       company, and hence, the Arbitrator has no jurisdiction<br \/>\n       to entertain such a dispute. Respondent has relied on<br \/>\n       the judgment of the Hon&#8217;ble Supreme Court in S P<br \/>\n       Chengalvaraya (Dead) Vs. Jaganath (Dead) 1994<br \/>\n       Rajdhani Law Reporter (SC 102).        In this case the<br \/>\n       Supreme Court has held that a litigant who approaches<br \/>\n       the Court is bound to produce all relevant documents to<br \/>\n       the litigation executed by him. It was also held that a<br \/>\n       person whose case is based on falsehood can be<br \/>\n       summarily thrown out at any stage of the litigation and<br \/>\n       has no right to approach the Court.     The Respondent<br \/>\n       has repeatedly contended that the contract documents<br \/>\n       and the arbitration agreement relied upon by the<br \/>\n       Applicant are invalid and tainted by fraud. It is settled<br \/>\n       law that fraud vitiates any transaction. However, it is<br \/>\n       also settled law that the mere allegations of fraud<br \/>\n       without clear and sufficient proof of the offence will not<br \/>\n       suffice.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>       19.        Admittedly   in   the   present    case,   the<br \/>\n       Respondent, Shri O.P. Malik does not deny that he has<br \/>\n       been having financial transactions with the     Applicant<br \/>\n       company for a number of years. He has inter alia,<br \/>\n       submitted in his reply that in November, 2002, he had<br \/>\n       met Mr. Atul Gupta, a Director of the Claimant company<br \/>\n       as he was desirous of becoming a sub-broker. He has<br \/>\n       also allowed the installation of the V-SAT in the branch<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">FAO No.188\/2008                                          Page 4 of 10<\/span><br \/>\n        office at his premise, paid of an amount of Rs.2,17,750\/-<br \/>\n       by a cheque (Para 8 of the reply), which he states was<br \/>\n       his security deposit and the Applicant claims was<br \/>\n       credited to his running account by cheque received<br \/>\n       dated 25-11-04.         The Respondent has also submitted<br \/>\n       that he had made payments by cheque for several lakhs<br \/>\n       of Rupees in favour of the Applicant Company.               From<br \/>\n       Statement of Account of the Respondent, annexed to<br \/>\n       the Claim Statement it is seen that, inter alia, credit has<br \/>\n       been given to him for an amount of Rs.8,50,000\/00 (P\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>       63) and Rs.2,17,750\/00 (Pages 68 and 76).                    The<br \/>\n       Respondent has also submitted a form signed by him to<br \/>\n       the Applicant requesting\/authorizing them to maintain a<br \/>\n       Running Account (P 29 of Rejoinder) and this amount<br \/>\n       has been shown as credit in his account. Respondent&#8217;s<br \/>\n       contention that this amount was paid as security<br \/>\n       deposit by him for installation of V-SAT in his premises<br \/>\n       has not at all been established.         The latter amount is<br \/>\n       stated to have been received by cheque dated 25-11-<br \/>\n       2002 by the Applicant and the Respondent has been<br \/>\n       given    credit   for    this   amount   in    the   particulars.<br \/>\n       Therefore, on a careful perusal of the                   relevant<br \/>\n       documents and averments made by the parties, there<br \/>\n       is no doubt that the Applicant and Respondent have<br \/>\n       signed a Member and Constituent Agreement dated 12-<br \/>\n       11-2002.       The Respondent has not denied that his<br \/>\n       signature appears on this document and has also<br \/>\n       averred that he has issued several cheques and had<br \/>\n       financial transactions with the Applicant Company. He<br \/>\n       has     also   stated    that   the   branch    office    started<br \/>\n       functioning on 6-2-2003. The Hon&#8217;ble Supreme Court in<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">FAO No.188\/2008                                                 Page 5 of 10<\/span><br \/>\n        Bharati Knitting Co. Vs. DHL Worldwide Express<br \/>\n       (JT 1996 (6) S.C. 254) has held that &#8220;when a party to the<br \/>\n       contract disputes the binding nature of the signed<br \/>\n       document, it is for him to prove the terms in the<br \/>\n       contract or circumstances of the present case, the<br \/>\n       Respondent has failed to establish that he is not bound<br \/>\n       by the contract in question or any other terms and<br \/>\n       circumstances in which he had signed the documents.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>       20.        In this connection, it is relevant to note that the<br \/>\n       Respondent in his reply dated 15-12-2005 has annexed<br \/>\n       a letter from the Applicant dated 27-5-2004, wherein<br \/>\n       they gave asked him to clear the debit balance of<br \/>\n       Rs.16,44,451.04 P immediately within three days, failing<br \/>\n       which they will take suitable legal action. This is the<br \/>\n       same amount claimed by the Applicant in the present<br \/>\n       case.   The Respondent had pointed out that in this<br \/>\n       letter the Applicant has referred to the MCA as sated<br \/>\n       &#8220;25-11-2002&#8221; and not &#8220;12-11-2002&#8221; as given in the<br \/>\n       claim statement. The AR of the Applicant again referred<br \/>\n       to this as an &#8220;inadvertent mistake&#8221; on their part as they<br \/>\n       had erroneously noted the date of the cheque received<br \/>\n       from the Respondent for the aforesaid amount of<br \/>\n       Rs.2,17,750\/- i.e. on 25-11-2002, instead of the correct<br \/>\n       date of MCA which is 12-11-2002. However, it is also<br \/>\n       relevant to note that the Respondent had neither<br \/>\n       disputed the actual amount claimed or given any earlier<br \/>\n       reply to this letter, as submitted by him during the<br \/>\n       hearing.&#8221;(emphasis added)<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">FAO No.188\/2008                                             Page 6 of 10<\/span>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> 2.         The trial Court has also noted that transactions have taken<\/p>\n<p>place between the parties from 2003 to 2004 and during which period<\/p>\n<p>the appellant never took up a stand that there was no agreement at all<\/p>\n<p>entered into between the parties. The relevant observations of the trial<\/p>\n<p>Court read as under:-\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>        &#8220;Before this Court too, the objector has not succeeded in<br \/>\n        establishing forgery or fraud. Fraud in terms of contract<br \/>\n        occurs where false documents have been created and<br \/>\n        the party to the fraud has gained and the victim of fraud<br \/>\n        has suffered damage. In the present case the objector<br \/>\n        had acted on the MCA having conducted business over a<br \/>\n        period of time gaining from the transactions till the<br \/>\n        situation arose where the objector fell short of liability<br \/>\n        tot he member i.e. respondent No.1 and the present<br \/>\n        dispute arose. As regards the allegation of forgery none<br \/>\n        of the interpolations constitute forgery as no element of<br \/>\n        dishonesty      existed.       In   the   present    case,   the<br \/>\n        interpolations in the agreement are factually correct<br \/>\n        relating to client code and D-MAT account number. The<br \/>\n        objector does not dispute the authenticity of these facts<br \/>\n        and he only claims that the numbers have been allotted<br \/>\n        in the year 2003. Between 2003 and the time in May<br \/>\n        2004 when the present dispute arose the present<br \/>\n        objector     never         raised    objections      with    the<br \/>\n        members\/respondent No.1 regarding these facts being<br \/>\n        entered into the agreement and continued to carry out<br \/>\n        transactions on the basis of the MCA. It is also not the<br \/>\n        case of the objector that the D-MAT account mentioned<br \/>\n        was never used in these transactions.             Again there is<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">FAO No.188\/2008                                                Page 7 of 10<\/span><br \/>\n         nothing to show how the respondent no.1\/member<br \/>\n        gained    by   these   interpolations   wrongly   and   how<br \/>\n        wrongful loss has been cause to the objector. Thus, no<br \/>\n        case of fraud and forgery have been made out by the<br \/>\n        present objector.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>        Rather it appears that once the present objector was<br \/>\n        faced with the prospect of the liability it has raised an<br \/>\n        objection of fraud and forgery without foundation.<br \/>\n        Having acted on the agreement and having benefited<br \/>\n        from the same, the objector cannot now wriggle out of<br \/>\n        his liability by calling the same agreement tainted. The<br \/>\n        conclusion of the Ld. Arbitrator in this regard cannot be<br \/>\n        therefore faulted as being perverse to review the<br \/>\n        Arbitrator&#8217;s award under Section 34 of the Arbitration<br \/>\n        Act.&#8221; (emphasis added)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>3.         Learned counsel for the appellant very vehemently argued<\/p>\n<p>that agreement in question is forged and fabricated and therefore no<\/p>\n<p>liability could have been fastened upon the appellant on this basis. On<\/p>\n<p>being pointed out as to whether in the reply filed to the claim petition<\/p>\n<p>in the arbitration proceedings, the appellant had specifically denied his<\/p>\n<p>signatures, nothing was pointed out to me on behalf of the appellant<\/p>\n<p>showing that the signatures of the appellant were alleged to be forged<\/p>\n<p>and fabricated.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>           In view of the above, there is no perversity whatsoever in<\/p>\n<p>the findings of the Arbitrator and of the Court below that a person who<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">FAO No.188\/2008                                            Page 8 of 10<\/span><br \/>\n has conducted many transactions over a long period should not be<\/p>\n<p>allowed to dispute the factum of having entered into the agreement.<\/p>\n<p>4.         The second argument urged by the learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>appellant is that the statement of account filed by the respondent was<\/p>\n<p>believed without calling upon the respondent to lead evidence. Strict<\/p>\n<p>provisions of the Evidence Act, 1872 do not apply to the arbitration<\/p>\n<p>proceedings in view of Section 19 of the Arbitration and Conciliation<\/p>\n<p>Act, 1996. The Arbitrator has considered various correspondences and<\/p>\n<p>other documents and the circumstances of the case to fasten liability<\/p>\n<p>upon the appellant. I completely agree with the observations of the<\/p>\n<p>trial Court that the objector is now endeavouring to somehow or the<\/p>\n<p>other wriggle out of his liability with respect to various transactions<\/p>\n<p>conducted between him and the respondent.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>5.         So far as the issue with respect to S-VAT equipment<\/p>\n<p>charges are concerned, the trial Court has rightly held that the<\/p>\n<p>Arbitrator fastened liability upon the appellant because equipment was<\/p>\n<p>not returned by the appellant to the respondent after termination of<\/p>\n<p>the agreement and therefore the respondent had to pay charges to the<\/p>\n<p>National Stock Exchange for the said equipment.<\/p>\n<p>6.         The scope of hearing objections to an Award under Section<\/p>\n<p>34 of the Act is limited. Unless there is gross perversity or illegality in<\/p>\n<p>the Award, a Court hearing objections cannot interfere under Section<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">FAO No.188\/2008                                            Page 9 of 10<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p> 34. The issue as to apprising of evidence and adopting one view out of<\/p>\n<p>the two views cannot be said to be filed in the category of perversity or<\/p>\n<p>illegality for a Court to interfere under Section 34 of the Act.   If the<\/p>\n<p>scope of objections to an Award is limited, then, surely the scope of<\/p>\n<p>hearing an appeal against the objections is further limited.
