dear learned colleague
According to me Evidence Act as well as courts accepted IT act. Thus Arbitration proceedings also should accept IT act.

yours in legal fraternity

dear colelague
I wish to further add that first and foremost principle for arbitrator is to strictly follow
PRINCIPLES OF NATURAL JUSTICE. Most of the awards were overruled by courts because
of lack of observance of principles of natural justice by the Arbitrators apart from observing the
basic principles of evidence.
sincere regards
