Madras High Court Upholds Fujitsu General's Suit Against ETA General Over Payment Dispute
The Madras High Court dismissed an appeal by Chennai-based ETA General Private Limited against a civil suit filed by Fujitsu General (Thailand) seeking payment of 19 million with 6% annual interest from April 2022. The court upheld a 2023 order rejecting ETA's request to dismiss the suit or refer the dispute to arbitration, ruling that the 2019 purchase orders and invoices were separate from agreements with Fujitsu General Limited, the parent company. ETA General had argued its manufacturing unit closure and contractual ties with Fujitsu entities, but the court maintained the financial dispute should proceed in court.
