1.The basic rule which is used to determine who should pay the cost in the process of arbitration, in court generally the successful party must be awarded his costs. There are no such difficulties aroused while such arbitration is applied in some simple cases, where the claim either succeeds or fails entirely. Where there is no such default part of the successful party. Practically some complications often arise. As an example, a claim may be succeeded in part or there may be a counterclaim present which also succeeds totally or in part or the respondent might have made an offer which the claimant should have accepted, another possibility costs may have been occasioned without any necessary by the successful.[1]

2.The arbitrators’ fees are looked after by the court and solved keeping in mind the criterion of the scale of relevance which can be seen in the law of Appendix III. The court can take into consideration whether the process can be accelerated or not, the arbitrators’ determination, whole spent time and the speed with which the proceedings and complexities of the disputes were tried to solve. It is done on the basis of the dispute amount that the scale tries to provide the maximum or minimum for an arbitrator.[2] The fees can be divided amongst the number of involved arbitrators. In special cases the fees can be fixed by the court on the basis of the high to low ranks of the arbitrators which shall actually be recovered from the application of the scale of relevance.

3.In respect of the arbitral procedure, certain advance costs are paid by both of the parties. This would ensure certainty of cost as well as negate any default in the payment of such costs, paid in accordance with a table of fees and costs. The scheme has already been adopted by the International Arbitration Centre. The International Centre for Alternate Dispute Resolution and Council of Arbitration also stipulate advance costs to be submitted by the parties. When a request is compiled without any advance cost, the arbitral tribunal may consider the claims withdrawn and proceed with the claims of the party who paid the advances on costs. Arbitration can be made more cost-effective if the parties are allowed to make informed choices about their cost-incurring practices, guided by the factors that the arbitral tribunal will finally consider when determining the allocations of costs at the conclusion of the arbitration[3].

4.A party which is involved in arbitral proceedings, they do not follow the basic principles under some circumstances. The party which is involved in arbitral proceedings can apply to the court challenging an award on the matter of irregularity that affects the tribunal, the proceeding. The right of the party towards the object and the application can be lost considering this restriction. Serious irregularity is a type of irregularity where an irregularity of more than one type might be considered to provide injustice to the respondent and the claimant. The circumstances are such as failure by the tribunal to comply, the tribunal exceeding its powers.

5.Particularly when there is a case of international arbitration the granting of their security for definite cost is a kind of exercised power. But it is almost unheard of civil law jurisdictions. Obviously, there is no such hard type of statistics which can be related to the number of cases of which security for costs is ordered in an international context. This is suggested that a low number of cases reflects the principles that an order should be made in some exceptional circumstances. The available of the remedy is one such a thing which should be appropriate and definitely in international contexts. Under a contract subject of a foreign law, parties can be arbitrating there.[4]

A much greater sum in advance by way of the security for costs to a respondent that takes advantages of which really a domestic remedy. Such presumptions which are discussed here can be applied.

6.The news which is included in the clauses of the arbitrator differs hugely considering different contracts. Several parties are present where in the clauses of the arbitration many regulations are applied on the basis of the enumerations of the arbitrators and also on their educational status and also their experiences, the linguistic part of the arbitrator, the places where they have done hearing practice and many more. It is also to encourage the explanations of the clause of arbitration to help in tackling of disputes.[5] The presence of recommendations should be prohibited. The most important characteristics of the clause of an arbitrator is the recognition of the place which is challenged to the situation where the hearings occur. This is actually known as the venue of arbitration. The process of selecting a seat depicts the governing laws and the ways of arbitration and most importantly the rights to be enforced towards the award of the arbitration. Article 14 can be cited as an example of the International Chamber of Commerce Arbitration Rules. Article 16 of the London Court of International arbitration Rules can also be cited as another example. It might not be compulsory for the arbitration’s seat and the place to be similar as they have to travel to different parts for many hearings. In that case also the seat to be chosen will not be affected.

7.Court gives little essential ingredients for an agreement of arbitration that are presented here in the following ways, the parties should have been bonded in a genuine agreement, and those agreements might be blended to be a clause in the document which are signed by the different parties or in the conversion of ant telegrams or letters or in any communication where the phone is involved to give the record of the stated agreement or any interchange of statements of defense or claim. While referencing a contract towards the document which contains a clause of arbitration it should also be kept in mind the agreement of the arbitration, inclusion of the fact that the contract is provided in written format. There are also situations where the party tries to include past deeds or relate future aspects.[6]
