SpiceJet vs Kalanithi Maran case: SC upholds Delhi HC's decision, directs reconsideration of arbitral award

In a significant relief to SpiceJet, the Supreme Court upheld a Delhi High Court division bench's decision to remand a 2018 arbitration case involving a share transfer dispute back to its single judge. The Court criticized the single judge for not applying his mind in the case between SpiceJet and its former promoter Kalanithi Maran.
