Section 9 of The Arbitration Act, 1996- Interim Measures by the Court

Section 9 entails the principle that any person can seek interim relief/measure from the Court. It provides for the interference of the Court before or during the arbitration proceedings and during the post-award stage. It provides a remedy to the parties to approach the Court and seek its interference to protect and secure their interests. However, once an arbitral tribunal is appointed, the Court can only intervene to provide interim protection if it appears to the Court that the remedy provided under Section 17 is not efficacious
