A.Hi,
To begin with, as previously stated, Section 9 of the Act empowers ‘any party' to seek interim relief from the Court at three stages: I prior to the commencement of arbitration proceedings; (ii) during the arbitration proceedings; and (iii) after the arbitral award is rendered but before it is enforced.Second, in instances where the remedy requested has no detrimental impact on the victorious party's rights over the subject matter of the dispute, the courts should not be prevented from awarding interim relief in favour of the failed party. Finally, where a Court imposes a stay on the implementation of an arbitral award during the pendency of an application for setting aside an arbitral award under section 34 of the Act, the unsuccessful party may be entitled to interim remedy from the court under Section 9.
Thank you very much.

A.Hi,
Firstly, as already stated, Section 9 of the Act itself entitles ‘any party’ to obtain interim relief from the Court at three stages, i.e. (i) before the commencement of arbitration proceedings; (ii) during the course of the arbitration proceedings; and (iii) after the arbitral award is made but prior to its enforcement. Secondly, the courts should not incapacitate themselves from granting interim relief in favor of the unsuccessful party in cases where the relief sought creates no negative impact on the rights of the successful party over the subject matter of the dispute. Lastly, while hearing an application for setting aside an arbitral award under section 34 of the Act, when a Court orders a stay on the enforcement of the arbitral award during the pendency of such application, the unsuccessful party may be entitled to obtain interim relief from the court under Section 9.
Thank you.
