What is this about?
Interlocutory applications seeking ad-interim injunction against comparative mosquito-spray advertisements allegedly disparaging the applicant's KALA HIT trademark.

What did the court decide?
Both original applications allowed; ad-interim injunction granted restraining infringement and disparagement of the applicant's trademarks until disposal of the suit.
