Section 36 is the enforcement provision — an arbitral award automatically becomes enforceable as a court decree once the challenge window under Section 34 expires or the challenge is rejected. Kiran should invoke Section 36, not Section 34 (which Meera would use to challenge the award, not Kiran to enforce it). Section 9 is for interim measures during arbitration, and Section 11 is for appointing arbitrators — both irrelevant at the enforcement stage.

1. 1 Pick up ACA 1996.
2. 2 Check Section 9 → interim relief (during arbitration). Wrong stage.
3. 3 Check Section 11 → appointment of arbitrator. Wrong stage.
4. 4 Check Section 34 → setting aside of award (this is what the LOSING party uses). Not enforcement.
5. 5 Check Section 36 → 'Enforcement of award — enforceable as decree.' ✓ This is what the WINNING party uses.

The text reads: Section 36 ACA: An arbitral award shall be enforced in accordance with CPC in the same manner as if it were a decree of the court, once the challenge period under Section 34 has expired or the challenge has been refused.
