1. The material, integral and essential part of cause of action has arisen outside the jurisdiction of this Court. The part of cause of action may have arisen in Delhi, however, the same should not be the sole factor to entertain the present petition. The Supreme Court in the case of Kusum Ingots & Alloys Ltd. v. Union of India and Anr., (2004) 6 SCC 254, has held as under:
“Forum conveniens
30. We must, however, remind ourselves that even if a small part of cause of action arises within the territorial jurisdiction of the High Court, the same by itself may not be considered to be a determinative factor compelling the High Court to decide the matter on merit. In appropriate cases, the Court may refuse to exercise its discretionary jurisdiction by invoking the doctrine of forum conveniens. [See Bhagat Singh Bugga v.
