Our Assessment
The Alternate Dispute Resolution ecosystem has been strengthened by the Mediation Act, 2023 (institutionalising mediation, including pre-litigation mediation and a Mediation Council of India), ongoing reform of the arbitration framework (a draft Arbitration and Conciliation (Amendment) Bill to make India a hub for institutional arbitration), and promotion of online dispute resolution. The legal framework is being actively improved, with full ecosystem maturity still developing. Partial (strong action).
