How this hub helps

The contract may select arbitration, a civil or commercial court, or a particular place. A cheque case under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act is not the same as a civil recovery claim. Interim protection may be necessary where assets, bank guarantees or evidence are at risk.

Start with the pillar guide

Commercial disputes are document-driven. The first task is to identify the contract, performance, breach, amount, limitation position and dispute-resolution clause. Cheque dishonour, civil recovery, commercial suits and arbitration can overlap, but each route has different notices, evidence and remedies.
