casestatus.in Summary

The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's judgment and restored the trial court's interim injunction against Sudhir Bhatia. Midas Hygiene Industries had established prior use of the "Laxman Rekha" mark since 1991 with valid copyright, while Bhatia dishonestly adopted similar packaging after working for the company. The Court rejected the Division Bench's reasoning that delay and laches defeated the injunction, holding that in infringement cases involving dishonest adoption, injunction must ordinarily follow regardless of delay. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
