Arb Appln No. 170 of 2026 __________
D.BHARATHA CHAKRAVARTHY, J.
2. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that arbitration has already been invoked, but the Receiver is yet to trace the vehicle. In spite of service of notice, the respondent has not chosen to appear before this Court to oppose the prayer made. Since a Receiver was already appointed to repossess the vehicle by an order dated 17.06.2026, the said order is now made absolute.
3. In view of the above, the Arbitration Application stands disposed of. However, there shall be no order as to costs. 06-10-2026 Neutral Citation: Yes/No NSL
