Arbitration Act - a new arbitrator is appointed

Question

if the current Arbitrator is removed and a new arbitrator is appointed  the question is from which point the new Arbitrator will resume the proceedings

Vidhikarya · Accepted Answer

The same rules shall be followed in appointing a substitute arbitrator which were applicable to the appointment of the arbitrator being replaced. Where an arbitrator is replaced any hearing previously held may be repeated at the discretion of the arbitral tribunal unless otherwise agreed by the parties. However it is provided that an order or ruling of the arbitral tribunal made prior to the replacement of an arbitrator shall not be invalid solely because there has been a change in the composition of the arbitral tribunal unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
