Appointment of a Sole Arbitrator on Default of the Other Party (India)
This document is used to appoint a sole arbitrator when the opposing party has failed to designate their own arbitrator within the required 30-day period. It leverages the powers granted under the Indian Arbitration & Conciliation Act, 1996, to ensure the legal proceedings can move forward.
