Foreign institutions, such as the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (#SIAC), have seen a growing number of cases involving Indian parties, indicating a willingness to embrace administered arbitration by credible institutions. This trend may reflect a certain lack of confidence in Indian arbitral institutions, potentially influenced by the slow litigation process in Indian courts. Despite this, recent legislative efforts in India aim to enhance the efficiency and speed of the arbitration process.
