English Court of Appeal Rejects India's Appeal in RAKIA Aluminium Plant Dispute
The English Court of Appeal dismissed India's appeal challenging an arbitral tribunal's jurisdiction in a dispute with Ras Al Khaimah Investment Authority (RAKIA) over an aluminium plant project in Andhra Pradesh. The dispute arose after the Andhra Pradesh government cancelled a bauxite supply agreement involving RAKIA and the Penna Group. The court ruled that the cancellation directly affected RAKIA's investment under the India-UAE Bilateral Investment Treaty, upholding previous rulings and rejecting India's jurisdictional challenge.
