[2009 (39) PTC 21 (Del.)] which held that Section 2(d) of the Designs Act, 2000 does not include any artistic work as defined in Section 2(c) of the Copyright Act. It was also held in the above RFA (OS) No. 25/2006 Page 12 of 72 judgment that it is evident from the definition of ‗design' under the Designs Act, 2000 that the artistic work as defined in Section 2(c) of the Copyright Act, 1957 is excluded if any party is able to bring his case within the framework of Section 2(c) of the Copyright Act, 1957 while claiming the copyright. In such a situation, the suit for infringement is maintainable.
