Dhaneshbhai Bhikhubhai Patel vs Shantiniketan Cooperative on 21 November, 2013
In the
case of Hardesh Ores (P) Ltd. (supra), new contractor who was
given the working of mine was sought to be prevented by interim
injunction to continue the mining work. The Hon ble Supreme Court
in the facts of the case found that the new contractor had already
commenced mining operations and entered into onerous business
commitments and on considering the comparative merits of the case
held that the High Court ought not to have passed unconditional order
of temporary injunction by ignoring the huge investments made by the
old contractor under its contract.
