law: The Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996
  57. Conditions for
  
  enforcement of foreign awards.
  1.  
  
    In
  
  order that a foreign award may be enforceable under this Chapter, it shall be
  
  necessary that –
  a.   the award has been
  
  made in pursuance of a submission to arbitration which is valid under the law
  
  applicable thereto;
  b.   the subject-matter of
  
  the award is capable of settlement by arbitration under the law of India;
  c.   the award has been
  
  made by the arbitral tribunal provided for in the submission to arbitration or
  
  constituted in the manner agreed upon by the parties and in conformity with the
  
  law governing the arbitration procedure;
  d.   the award has become
  
  final in the country in which it has been made, in the sense that it will not
  
  be considered as such if it is open to opposition or appeal or 22 if it is
  
  proved that any proceedings for the purpose of contesting the validity of the
  
  award are pending;
  e.   the enforcement of
  
  the award is not contrary to the public policy or the law of India.
  Explanation.-Without
  
  prejudice to the generality of clause (e), it is hereby declared, for the
  
  avoidance of any doubt, that an award is in conflict with the public policy of
  
  India if the making of the award was induced or affected by fraud or
  
  corruption.
  1.  
  
  
  2.  
  
    Even
  
  if the conditions laid down in sub-section (1) are fulfilled, enforcement of
  
  the award shall be refused if the Court is satisfied that-
  a.   the award has been
  
  annulled in the country in which it was made;
  b.   the party against whom
  
  it is sought to use the award was not given notice of the arbitration
  
  proceedings in sufficient time to enable him to present his case; or that,
  
  being under a legal incapacity, he was not properly represented;
  c.   the award does not
  
  deal with the differences contemplated by or falling within the terms of the
  
  submission to arbitration or that it contains decisions on matters beyond the
  
  scope of the submission to arbitration:
  Provided that if the
  
  award has not covered all the differences submitted to the arbitral tribunal,
  
  the Court may, if it thinks fit, postpone such enforcement or grant it subject
  
  to such guarantee as the Court may decide.
  1.  
  
  
  2.  
  
  
  3.  
  
    If
  
  the party against whom the award has been made proves that under the law
  
  governing the arbitration procedure there is a ground, other than the grounds
  
  referred to in clauses (a) and (c) of sub-section (1) and clauses (b) and (c)
  
  of sub-section (2) entitling him to contest the validity of the award, the
  
  Court may, if it thinks fit, either refuse enforcement of the award or adjourn
  
  the consideration thereof, giving such party a reasonable time within which to
  
  have the award annulled by the competent tribunal.
