Dispute Summary
The plaintiff (MSN Laboratories) filed a petition seeking the revocation of Indian Patent No. IN 243301. The defendants argued that the petition was time-barred as it was filed more than three years after the patent grant date. The court dismissed the applications, holding that the limitation period for challenging a patent is not necessarily from the date of grant but when the right to sue accrues, and affirming its territorial jurisdiction.
