Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court allowed the civil appeal filed by European Investment Limited, setting aside the High Court's interim order that had modified the Single Judge's contempt ruling. The Court held that the Division Bench of the High Court erred in granting interim relief to the respondents despite their prior consent to the Single Judge's order, which found them guilty of contempt for willfully disobeying court directives. The ruling emphasized the importance of adhering to court orders and the consequences of contempt under civil law.
