An MSME Council award has been declared a nullity if it was passed without properly terminating the conciliation process and adhering to arbitral procedures.
An award issued by the MSME Council has been deemed legally void. This ruling stems from the council's failure to properly terminate the conciliation proceedings before issuing the award.
Furthermore, the decision highlights that the arbitral procedure was not followed as mandated. The non-adherence to these procedural requirements renders the award a nullity in the eyes of the law.
This judgment underscores the critical importance of following established legal and procedural frameworks in dispute resolution mechanisms, particularly those involving micro, small, and medium enterprises.
