PAPER - 2.3: LAW RELATING TO INTERNATIONAL COMMERCIAL TRANSACTIONS
Law relating to international commercial transactions, also referred to as law of transnational commercial transactions refers to that body of rules and regulations governing private commercial transactions across national frontiers. The main objective of this course is to help understanding the legal framework governing transnational commercial transactions with special reference to law and practice in India. The subject is intended to cover all those sale transactions with international dimensions but excludes private international law aspects. The course is broadly divided into eight Units.

Module I - Introduction
Module 1 (Introduction) intends to provide an overview regarding the nature and scope of law relating to international commercial transactions. It establishes the need for regulation in this area and broadly looks into the various types of contract prevalent in international commercial transactions. Further, it gives an introduction to international commercial terms, popularly known as INCOTERMS, that are special contractual terms and briefly touches upon the payment mechanisms that are commercially used today.

Module II & III - Introduction to Sea Carriage & Carriage of Goods by Sea: The Liability Regime
The subject carriage of goods by sea as whole is addressed in Module 2 (Introduction to Sea Carriage) and in Module 3 (Carriage of Goods by Sea: The Liability Regime) Module 2 explores four aspects of the law of the carriage of goods by sea. First, it explains two broad types of contracts of carriage- the bill of lading and the charter party. Second, it examines the bill of lading document in detail and pays attention to the function of a bill as a receipt of the goods shipped, as evidence of the contract of carriage and as a document of title capable of conveying constructive possession of the goods. Third, it introduces readers to the various types of charter parties. Fourth, it provides an overview of the relationship between bill of lading and charter parties, by considering the law of incorporation of charter party clauses into a bill of lading.

The historical purpose as well as the liability regime codified under ‘The Hague (the Rules)’ and ‘The Hague- Visby Rules’ are explored in Module 3. The scope of the Hague Rules as incorporated by the Indian Carriage of Goods by Sea Act (COGSA), 1925 is discussed along with a detailed appraisal of each of the clauses of the ‘Rules’. Special focus is devoted to the carrier’s duty to provide a seaworthy and cargoworthy vessel and to care for the cargo under Article III of the ‘Rules’. Exceptions under Article IV of the ‘Rules’ are also examined in this chapter. For a proper understanding of the international legal regime applicable to carriage of goods by sea the combined Hague regime is compared to the subsequent ‘Hamburg Rules’ and ‘Rotterdam Rules.’

Module IV - Carriage by Air
Module 4 (Carriage by Air) introduces the liability regime under the Warsaw Convention of 1929, the amended Warsaw Convention (the Hague Protocol) of 1955 and the Montreal Convention of 1999. Special attention is given to the provisions of the Indian Carriage by Air Act, 1972, which has incorporated the above mentioned international conventions. Besides, Unit IV, in a separate annexure, also provides a general analysis of the multi modal transportation of goods in India.

Module V - Sale of Goods under Common Law and the CISG
Legal aspects of contracts of sale form the core of mercantile law. Therefore, this subject is covered in two parts- Module 5 (Sale of Goods under Common Law and the CISG) and Module 6 (Sale of Goods in India). The reason for this is that Indian law, such as the Indian Sale of Goods Act of 1930 and Indian Contract Act of 1872, largely follows common law principles whereas the CISG, to a large extent, follows contract law principles of civil law legal systems. Therefore, a grasp of both is crucial to any student of mercantile law set in transnational context. Thus, Unit 5 attempts at providing an overseas perspective by focusing on the common law rules in general, and the ‘Convention on International Sale of Goods (CISG)’, 1980 in particular. Issues such as offer, acceptance, subject matter of the contract, rules regarding passing of property, transfer of property by a non-owner, and rights and duties of the buyer and seller are covered in this Unit.

Module VI - Sale of Goods in India
Module 6 (Sale of Goods in India) provides an overview of the legal scope of Indian law governing the sale of goods. Further, it analyses the provisions of the Sale of Goods Act, 1930 and compares them with CISG and English common law position wherever relevant. Once again, aspects such as formation of contract, the duties of the parties, transfer of property, legal remedies that the parties have under the Indian law are dealt with in great detail using the help of supporting case law.

Module VII - International Payment Mechanism
Focuses on the centrality of effecting the payment of sale price by the importer to the exporter through letters of credit transaction. The concept and meaning of letter of credit (L/C) are touched upon. Attention is then devoted to ‘The Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (UCP), in particular the use of UCP 600. Apart from discussing few important definitional provisions, much attention is paid to two fundamental doctrines, the doctrine of autonomy of letter of credit and the doctrine of strict compliance, and incidental legal issues such as complying presentation and rights and liabilities of the parties involved in a letter of credit transaction.

Module VIII - Settlement of International Commercial Disputes
Commercial transactions set in international context have tremendous potential for disputes. So, amicable settlement of such disputes is the prime concern of the parties. Over the years, international commercial arbitration proved to be the most effective mode of settlement of disputes.

This unit begins with the main advantages of the arbitration set in the international/transnational context and discuses few basic subjects such as the arbitration agreement, appointment of arbitrator/s, conduct of the arbitral proceedings, definition of international commercial arbitration, and review of arbitral awards. Besides, it addresses issues like choice of law and providing interim measures. The recognition and enforcement of foreign arbitral awards in the Indian domestic sphere is evaluated with the help of prominent decisions rendered by the various High Courts and the Supreme Court of India. Finally, the role of international conciliation is briefly discussed.
