SUMMARY

In January 2023, the Singapore Court of Appeal ("SGCA") delivered a landmark judgment in Anupam Mittal v. Westbridge II Investment Holdings, a case that has become a crucial reference point in international arbitration. This case originating from a dispute over a shareholders' agreement governed by Indian law, highlighted the intricate challenges of cross-jurisdictional arbitration and the diverging legal positions of Singapore and Indian courts.
