Insofar as, the above appeal is concerned, the grievance as urged by the learned counsel for the appellant is primarily that the impugned directions could not have been given for the simple reason that the appellant herein is using the trade name „UTRACON‟ as the name of the company in the record of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs and there is no order restraining the usage as a trade name.

She states that in the ad-interim injunction order dated 07.08.2024 there was no direction to the Appellant for rectification or cessation of the Appellant‟s corporate name and therefore the Appellant is not in contempt of the said order. She states that the learned Single Judge in the impugned order has proceeded on an incorrect premise that there was any direction issued against the Appellant herein in the order dated 07.08.2024.
