An unstamped instrument when it is required to be stamped cannot exist in law as it is neither a contract nor enforceable in law. Thus, an arbitration agreement (independently or in a larger instrument) which attracts stamp duty but is unstamped or insufficiently stamped would render agreement contained in such instrument as being non-existent in law and cannot be acted upon.
