ORDER 1. The present petition has been filed by the petitioner stating inter alia that the respondents are in breach of the order dated 24.2.2014, passed in IA No. 21136 of 2013, an application filed by the plaintiff/petitioner under Order XXXIX Rules 1 & 2 CPC, whereunder the respondents/defendants were restrained from using the trademark “Brahmos” in relation to educational activities or part of domain name in any manner whatsoever in order to create the confusion and deception and infringing the trademark of the plaintiff. 2. On 13.4.2015, after hearing arguments of both sides, the Predecessor Bench has observed that the petitioner has made out a prima facie case of contempt. However, at that stage, learned Senior Advocate appearing for the respondents had sought time to obtain instructions from his clients as to whether they were willing to discontinue with the mark “Brahmojus” which they are using for educational activities. 3.

In view of the submission made by the learned Senior Advocate appearing for the respondents states that the authorized representative of the defendant No. 1 in the suit shall file an affidavit of compliances within one week, with an advance copy to the other side. 5.
