Dabur India Ltd vs K.R. Industries

The Supreme Court addressed a copyright infringement dispute under Section 25-C of the Copyright Act, 1957, concerning the packaging of 'Dabur Red Tooth Powder' and 'Sujata' tooth powder. The Court held that the Delhi High Court lacked jurisdiction as the respondent was a resident of Andhra Pradesh, thereby affirming the lower court's decision to dismiss the suit based on jurisdictional grounds. The ruling emphasized the importance of proper jurisdiction in copyright cases, particularly when the defendant resides outside the jurisdiction of the filing court.
