Dispute Summary
The appellant, Electrosteel Castings Ltd., appealed an interlocutory order against six former employees who joined a rival manufacturer, Saw Pipes Ltd. The dispute centered on whether the employees breached contractual clauses prohibiting them from working for competitors and disclosing trade secrets related to ductile iron pipe manufacturing. The court dismissed the appeal, noting that while know-how exists, enforcing restrictive covenants is difficult, but upheld the existing injunction against divulging secrets.
