Judgment text excerpt
The petitioner challenged an interim order of the Punjab and Haryana High Court regarding the use of the trademark 'Swagat' for tobacco products. The court noted that parallel litigations were pending between the parties in both the Delhi High Court and the District Court of Muktsar. The core issue involved the infringement of trademark and copyright and the application of Section 10 of the Code of Civil Procedure regarding the stay of suits.
