Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that an order of injunction under Order 39, Rules 1 and 2 of the Code of Civil Procedure does not automatically revive upon the restoration of a suit. The Court distinguished between incidental and supplemental proceedings, stating that orders in incidental proceedings may revive with the suit, while supplemental proceedings require fresh orders. The judgment clarifies the inherent jurisdiction of courts to grant injunctions based on statutory powers and the necessity of such orders for effective adjudication.
