The Indian Performing Right Society Ltd vs Vodafone Idea Ltd on 12 October, 2018
In order to appreciate whether the nature
of the agreements forming the subject-matter of CS no.23 of 2018
(Vodafone India Ltd. & Anr. vs. Saregama India Ltd. & Anr.) are
similar to the agreements under which the defendants are using
such musical works and sound recordings, the respondent was
directed to disclose specimen agreements with Sony Musical
Entertainment India Pvt. Ltd. and Tips Industries Ltd, in view of
specific allegations being made by the plaintiff in paragraph 48
5
of the petition that the respondents' platforms under the Vodafone
and Idea brands are offering VAS to end-users.
