Arbitration provides the parties with autonomy and liberal procedure and has been successful in providing cogent decisions. The world has shifted to dispute resolution mechanism such as arbitration and mediation, irrespective of what legal field the issue pertains to. Arbitration can allow parties to resolve the disputes as per their convenience.

Domestic arbitration is a dispute resolution mechanism which is often preferred by the parties from same jurisdictions who intend to avoid the recourse of court. In domestic arbitration, the parties involved are either nationals or habitual residents of the country. It is administered in a country where both parties belong to, however the seat of arbitration may vary as per the choice of parties.

In India, the governing law for domestic arbitration depends on whether the parties opt for institutional arbitration or ad hoc arbitration. In institutional arbitration, the proceedings are governed by the rules of the arbitration institution to which the parties refer their dispute and in ad hoc arbitration, the proceedings are governed by the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996.
