Hari Shankar, J.*,<\/b> held that it could not be said that, even on merits, any case existed for staying the present revocation petition and accordingly, dismissed the application.<\/p>\n<p><b>Background<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">In the instant case, Revocation petition was filed by the petitioners electronically. The petition sought revocation of IN 268846 (&#8220;IN&#8217;846&#8221;) granted to Respondent 2, in respect of &#8220;Glucopyranosyl-substituted Benzenol derivatives, drugs containing said compounds, the use thereof and method for the production thereof&#8217;&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">As against this, the suit was filed by Respondent 2, asserting IN&#8217;846 and alleging infringement, by the petitioners, of the said patent. The suit was filed by Respondent 2 before the Himachal Pradesh High Court on 19-10-2021, three days after the present revocation petition was electronically filed by the petitioner before this Court, wherein ex-parte stay was granted by the Himachal Pradesh High Court. Respondent 2 filed a second suit against the petitioners on 21-10-2021, where again stay was granted by the Himachal Pradesh High Court.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Respondent 2 contended that the issues in controversy in the present revocation petition and in the suit filed by Respondent 2 against the petitioners before the Himachal Pradesh High Court, were not only overlapping but were identical. Therefore, the respondent submitted that on merits, a clear case for stay of the present revocation proceedings was made out to avoid the possibility of conflicting decisions.<\/p>\n<p><b>Analysis, Law and Decision<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">On considering an issue that whether a revocation petition could be treated as a suit for the purposes of Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001523682\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">10<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726944\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CPC<\/a>, the Court relied on <i>Raju Jhurani<\/i> v. <i>Germinda Pvt. Ltd.<\/i>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/QY3nYCwW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">(2012) 8 SCC 563<\/a> and opined that where provisions of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726944\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CPC<\/a> which deal with suits, were sought to be invoked with respect to proceedings instituted under other statutes, such proceedings were not to be treated as suits.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court also noted that attention of the Court had not been drawn to any provision which either in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726944\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CPC<\/a> or in any of the rules governing the Court including the Intellectual Property Division Rules and the Patent Rules, which, either expressly or by necessary implication, treated a revocation petition under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001555880\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">64<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002768478\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Patents Act<\/a> as a suit for the purposes of Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001523682\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">10<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726944\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CPC<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court noted that in absence of any provision by which a revocation petition under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001555880\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">64<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002768478\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Patents Act<\/a> could be treated as a suit, a Court could not deem a revocation petition to be a suit. Deeming fictions, and the creation of deeming fictions, were generally the exclusive province of the legislature. The Court could not create a deeming fiction on its own, where the statute did not do so.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court, further opined that the final reason why the revocation petition could not be treated as a suit under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001523682\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">10<\/a> of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726944\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CPC<\/a> was that, even if it applies in the facts of a particular case, Section 10 did not bring to a halt the proceedings in a suit, it only stays the trial of the suit. Even in a case where Section 10 applied, the Court which was seized of the later suit might still pass interlocutory orders under Order XXXIX of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726944\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CPC<\/a> and other cognate provisions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Therefore, the Court opined that a revocation petition under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001555880\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">64<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002768478\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Patents Act<\/a> was not a suit within the meaning of Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001523682\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">10<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726944\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CPC<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Further on considering the issue that whether a case for stay was made out even on merits, the Court opined that one fundamental difference between the proceeding for revocation of a patent under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001555880\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">64<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002768478\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Patents Act<\/a> and a civil suit by a patent holder, seeking injunction against infringement of the patent under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001555743\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">104<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002768478\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Patents Act<\/a> is that, if a revocation proceeding succeeded, the patent was deleted from the register of patents. Whereas, in an infringement suit, the patent did not stand extinguished. The only result was that the injunction sought would not be granted.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court opined that the relief which would result, in the event of the challenge to the patent, in the revocation proceedings and in the written statement filed by way of response to the suit, succeeding, was completely different.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Thereafter, relying on <i>Aspi Jal<\/i> v. <i>Khushroo Rustom Dadyburjor<\/i>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/10w8Zv4E\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">(2013) 4 SCC 333<\/a> and <i>National Institute of Mental Health &amp; Neuro Sciences<\/i> v. <i>C. Parameshwara<\/i>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/D8Dh6phx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">(2005) 2 SCC 256<\/a>, the Court opined that it could not be said that, even on merits, any case existed for staying the present revocation petition pending the outcome of the suit instituted in the Himachal Pradesh High Court.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Accordingly, the present application under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001523682\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">10<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002726944\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CPC<\/a> was dismissed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The matter to be re-notified on 24-08-2023.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #632423;\">Dr. Reddys Laboratories Ltd. v.
