Dispute Summary
The Karnataka High Court dismissed the appeal filed by Spr Group Holdings against an interim order that restrained its use of a specific label, cap, and bottle design. The court held that the initial approval granted by the Excise Commissioner was based on his discretionary power under excise rules, not necessarily confirming infringement or passing off. Since the matter primarily involved the scope of administrative discretion versus civil rights, the High Court found no error in the Trial Court's decision to grant temporary injunction against the plaintiff.
