Abstract
The article charts the development of international commercial arbitration in India in light of the recent judgment of the Supreme Court in the BALCO case. It starts by outlining the relevant parts of the Indian Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996 and relevant principles. It proceeds to explore the seminal decision in Bhatia and its after-effects. Next, the article critically examines the decision in BALCO, and reaches a conclusion as to whether or not this decision makes India more 'international arbitration friendly'.
