Yashasvi Havelia vs Prabhtej Bhatia And Anr on 22 January, 2026
In the judgment in Shell Transource Limited v. Shell International
Petroleum Company Ltd., 2012 SCC OnLine IPAB 29, it was observed by
the IPAB that the onus of proving "non-user" is on the person who pleads
the same. However, when the applicant pleads "non-user", the respondent
must specifically deny it. Therefore, in the absence of a specific denial, it
was held that the allegations of "non-user" stood admitted."
