Praveen Chauhan
Managing Partner
PRACTICE AREA/ EXPERTISE
Arbitration and Property Disputes
PREVIOUS EMPLOYEMENT
Worked under the mentorship and guidance of Late Justice Valmiki Mehta for about 10 years and was his co-counsel in leading matters.
SUMMARY
Mr. Praveen Chauhan is the Managing Partner here at C & S Law Offices. His legal experience of more than two decades gives him a cut above the rest. He has strengthened his Arbitration jurisprudence due to his keen interest in Alternative Dispute Resolution Mechanisms.
EXPERIENCE
Mr. Praveen has to his credit, several reportable and landmark judgments, which have acted as a precedent and focal point in leading cases:
- Whether question as to the interpretation of a contract falls squarely within the jurisdiction of the Arbitral Tribunal; Union of India Vs Inderjit Mehta Constructions Ltd., Delhi High Court
- It is common for separate corporate entities to carry out different aspects of the same business and employees of such company may have a sense of affinity but this does not per se necessarily mean that both the companies are one and the same; Store One Retail India Ltd. Vs Century 21 Infrastructure Ltd., Delhi High Court
- In grant of Interim Injuction, court is required to consider prima facie case, balance of convenience and irreparable loss to the other parties to suit and Injuction is solely an equitable concept; Super Cassettes Industries Ltd. Vs People Infocom Pvt. Ltd.
- Requirement of Refugee Registration Certificate after allotment of plot not deemed necessary; Union of India Vs G Sareen
- Protection of Tenants against eviction and essential ingredients which a landlord is required to show for the purpose of getting a bonafide eviction order; Raj Rani Chaudhary & Ors. Vs Umesh Atri, Delhi High Court
- Right of daughter in property as co-parcener as the son in light of Section 6 of Hindu Succession (Amendment) Act, 2005; Sangeeta Bhambani Vs Jatinder Sardana &Ors., Delhi High Court
- During the lifetime of husband, he shall be under legal obligation to discharge his duties towards his wife and only after his death, his father shall maintain his daughter-in-law if she is unable to maintain herself out of own earnings. Further, maintenance by father-in-law is not in absolute terms but subject to some condition; Radha Narang Vs Karun Raj Narang
- Mere non-mentioning of draft details in auctioner’s reports is no ground to hold that the amounts were not deposited; Ram Karan Gupta Vs Dayanand Gupta, Delhi High Court
- In a normal construction contract when the construction is for the benefit of owners, it is but natural that the cost of construction shall be borne by the owners and the contractor shall even receive remuneration/fee/profits; Sushil Bhasin Vs Sundeep Gupta, Delhi High Court
- There is no vested right of a participant in a tender to have an award concluded in its favour, all that can be demanded and ensured to a tenderer is that he is given a fair, equal and non-discrimnatory treatment; Inderjit Mehta Vs Union of India, Delhi High Court
