Impact of the commercial courts act of 2015 on the speedy resolution of commercial disputes in India


Author(s): N Thenmozhi and ST Naidu

Abstract: The Commercial Courts Act of 2015's outline was a significant advancement meant to accelerate the resolution of commercial disputes in India. This study looks at how the Act affects the efficiency of the Indian judiciary, highlighting important phases including forming commercial courts with specific functions, time-bound resolve necessities, and procedural interpretations that include compulsory pre-institution negotiation. Small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) benefited critically from the 2018 amendment's decrease of the jurisdictional inception, which greatly enlarged access to these courts. Based on experimental proof, there has been an obvious development in the rates at which commercial matters are resolved, particularly in urban areas such as Delhi and Mumbai. As a result, India now ranks higher in World Bank's Ease of Doing Commerce Index.
Nevertheless, the analysis also points out hindrances that preclude the Act from reaching its full prospective, such as unpredictable submission throughout states and the enduring accumulation in traditional courts. The essay highlights the consequence of demanding adherence to the Act's timelines and processes to achieve speedy justice by studying noteworthy cases like Tata Sons Limited v. Siva Industries and Holdings Ltd. and current Supreme Court rulings. The results indicate that although the Act has expressively improved the efficiency of commercial dispute settlement, more work has to be done in the parts of judicial training, capacity building, and consistent state-by-state application to earn the full rewards of this transformation. This research contributes to understanding the Act’s role in improving the comfort of doing business in India and its inferences for the country’s economic growth.
