JUDGMENT VINOD K.SHARMA, J. - The petitioners by way of present revision petition have challenged the order passed by the learned Civil Judge (Jr. Divn) as well as the order passed by the learned Additional District Judge, Chandigarh, vide which objections to the award filed by the petitioners were dismissed and the award dated 27th January, 1996 was ordered to be made rule of the Court. 2. M/S Neelam Engineering and Construction Company had entered into a contract agreement with the Union of India for providing additional security lighting arrangement in various zones of TBRL Range, Ramgarh near Chandigarh. On account of differences having arisen between the parties, the matter was referred to Shri T.S. Plaha, CWE, Chandigarh, for arbitration. The Arbitrator passed an award in favour of the respondent herein. It was ordered that the respondent-claimant would be entitled to interest @ 18% per annum from the date of order till realisation. M/S Neelam Engineering and Construction Company, respondent herein, filed a petition under Section 14(2) read with Sections 17 and 29 of the Arbitration Act, 1940 for making the award rule of the Court in which the petitioners Union of India, herein filed objection petition under Sections 30 and 33 of the Arbitration Act on 3-1-1998 with a prayer to set aside the award on the plea that the Arbitrator was guilty of misconduct. The objections filed by the petitioners were primarily dismissed by the learned Courts below on the ground that the objections could be filed after the filing of the award and the objections filed before the filing of the award were not objections in the eyes of law. The finding of the learned Courts below is in consonance with the law laid down by the Hon'ble High Court of Madhya Pradesh in the case of Paltansingh Gulabrai Vs. M.P. State Industrial Corp. Ltd., 1988 CCC 75, wherein it has been held as under:- “Learned counsel for the non-applicants submitted that even if the objection against the award is taken to be within time with the aid of S.14 of the Limitation Act, the applicant does not get any benefit out of it. As seen above, the application under S. 30 was filed on Nov. 3, 1982, whereas the award was filed in the Court on Mar. 24,1983 Thus the objection was filed about 5 months before the filing of the award. As seen above, the application under S. 30 was filed on Nov. 3, 1982, whereas the award was filed in the Court on Mar. 24,1983 Thus the objection was filed about 5 months before the filing of the award. In other words no objection was filed after the notice of filing of the award given to the parties. Sec. 17 of the Act contemplates filing of the objections against the award only after the award has been filed. (See Janardhanprasad v. Chandrashekhar and Ors. AIR 1951 Nag. 198) and Lachhami Prasad v. Govardhan Dass and Ors. AIR 1948 Pat. 171.” Similar view was taken by the Hon'ble Bombay High Court in the case of Ratanjit Virpal and Company Vs. Dhiraj Lal Mani lal AIR (29) 1942 Bombay 101 as well as by the Hon'ble High Court of Patna in the case of lachhmi Prasad Vs. Gobardhan Dass and others, AIR (35) 1948 Patna 171. 3. Mr. Kamal Sehgal appearing on behalf of the petitioners did not contest this proposition of law, but contended that in the absence of notice having been issued under Section 14 (2) of the Arbitration Act which entitled the petitioners to file objections within 30 days from that notice, the award could not be made rule of the Court. The contention of the learned counsel for the petitioners is that by not issuing a notice under section 14 (2) of the Arbitration Act, the petitioners have been denied the opportunity to file objections and, therefore, the impugned order holding that the objections filed by the petitioners were pre-mature cannot be sustained and the case deserves to be remanded back to the learned trial court for issuing notice to the petitioners in terms of Section 14 (2) of the Arbitration Act and thereafter proceed with the matter in accordance with law. In support of this contention, learned counsel for the petitioners placed reliance on the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Secretary to Government of Karntaka and another Vs. Harishbabu, AIR 1996 S.C. 3421, wherein it has been held as under:- “The period of limitation for filing objections seeking the setting aside of an arbitration award commences from the date of service of the notice under S. 14(2) issued by the Court upon the parties regarding the filing of the award. Harishbabu, AIR 1996 S.C. 3421, wherein it has been held as under:- “The period of limitation for filing objections seeking the setting aside of an arbitration award commences from the date of service of the notice under S. 14(2) issued by the Court upon the parties regarding the filing of the award. Such a notice need not be in writing but what is essential is that the notice or intimation or communication of the filing of the award must be issued by the Court to the parties and served upon the parties concerned. Date of service of notice issued by the arbitrator under Section 14 (1) or the date of obtaining an endorsement on the award by the arbitrator from the party concerned is irrelevant for determining the question of limitation for filing objections under Article 119 (b) of the Limitation Act, 1963.” 4. I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and find no force in the contention raised by him. The Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Secretary to Government of Karnataka (supra) has been pleased to hold that notice under Section 14(2) is not required to be in writing. The parties should have the notice or intimation or communication of the filing of the award from the court. 5. It is not in dispute that the petitioners in the present case had filed objections against the award on 3-01-1998 when the award had not been filed in the Court. It was only on 18th of February, 1998 that directions were issued for filing the award in the case. Thereafter on 24th of April, 1998 a notice was issued to the Arbitrator for filing original copy of the award. It was in the presence of the parties on 27th of May,1998 that an order was recorded that the arbitration file has been received. Thus the learned Courts below were right in coming to the conclusion that notice of filing of the award can be considered to have been issued to the petitioners on 27th of May,1998. 6. It is also not in dispute that no objections within the stipulated period of 30 days were filed by the petitioners and, therefore, the petitioners at this stage cannot be permitted to contend that another notice is required to be given to enable them to file objections. 6. It is also not in dispute that no objections within the stipulated period of 30 days were filed by the petitioners and, therefore, the petitioners at this stage cannot be permitted to contend that another notice is required to be given to enable them to file objections. The learned Courts below, therefore, were right in coming to the conclusion that the objections filed by the petitioners were not objections in the eyes of law having been filed prior to the filing of the award and rightly made the award rule of the court. Thus, there is no illegality or error in exercise of jurisdiction by the learned Courts below which may call for interference by this Court. Dismissed.
