Alternative dispute resolution (ADR), as a mechanism to resolve disputes, has gained wide acceptance in India. This is primarily because the traditional adversarial system of dispensing justice is dilatory, expensive, and, many a time, ineffective. The recent spurt in India's economic development coupled with the renewed confidence of foreign investors to invest in India has also made it imperative that India provides a swifter justice delivery system to resolve commercial disputes. The volume examines some of the important aspects of dispute resolution being practiced in India. More than twenty national and international experts from various fields within the domain of dispute resolution have come together to answer some of the most complex issues and shed light on the usage of the best practices of dispute resolution in India. The work aims to enhance the understanding of the legal issues related to dispute resolution, and provides an updated account of law incorporating the recent Arbitration and Conciliation (Amendment) Act, 2015.
