Mediation is an alternative conflict and dispute resolution mechanism.
Mediation is a process through which a Mediator – an independent and impartial neutral, facilitates disputants to arrive at practical and mutually agreeable solutions to resolve their conflict.
Mediation is
The essential spirit of mediation lies in its voluntary nature and confidentiality. The mediator is not a judge and will not evaluate the case. The settlement reached under mediation is binding, valid in law and is not appealable.
The success of mediation globally is around 70% and is on the rise. India is also mediating more because of the amendment to the Civil Procedure Code and the mandatory requirement of pre-litigation mediation in the Commercial Courts Act and in certain family disputes. Court annexed mediation centers have been created by the Hon’ble High Courts, where certain pending cases are referred for mediation. There is no specific law for private mediation or pre-litigation mediation. However, institutional mediation is recognised and BIMACC is grateful to be recognised by the Govt. of India in this regard.
BIMACC has taken initiative to set up India’s first International Mediation Centre. It has on its panel, several international mediators who are experienced in Commercial, Corporate and Intellectual Property mediation, as well as matters relating to family and consumer disputes. It offers state-of-the-art facilities at its Centre and has framed its own rules in conformity with international standards. The cost of mediation compared to arbitration or litigation is very inexpensive. Being voluntary, it creates a “win-win” situation at the end of mediation. The Mediation Centre also has facilities for video conferencing or online mediation for certain cases.
The settlement reached under mediation is binding and is not appealable.
