To be noted, the sole Arbitrator, who constituted the Arbitral Tribunal and made the impugned award, which is under challenge in the main OP, has been arrayed as second respondent.

2. Be that as it may, learned counsel for applicants submits that there has been amalgamation pursuant to orders passed by Company Courts (Madras and Delhi High Courts), which has necessitated the captioned application with a prayer for amendment. It is further to be noted that the amendment is merely to change the name of the first respondent Company post amalgamation.
