The applicant sought recognition and enforcement of a foreign judgment obtained in India against the respondent for unpaid goods.
The respondent opposed, arguing the expert evidence on Indian law was inadmissible due to bias, the Indian court lacked jurisdiction, the claim was statute-barred, and there was a denial of natural justice.
The court admitted the expert evidence, found a real and substantial connection to India, held the limitation period did not begin until the foreign appeal period expired, and found no denial of natural justice.
The application was granted and the Indian judgment was recognized.
