No relief to Chauhan in Maaza dispute- Food-Cons. Products-News By Industry-News-The Economic Times
In a setback to Bisleri owner Ramesh Chauhan, Delhi HC on Monday declined to modify an earlier injunction (ruling) order against
Bisleri and in favour of The Coca-Cola Company (TCCC) over the legal battle involving IPR for the Maaza beverage. Reacting to the court order, Mr Chauhan told ET that his company Aqua Minerals (AMPL) has asked the HC to vacate this order on the basis that it has no jurisdiction in the matter.
The Delhi HC, in its latest order passed on November 17, has ruled that it would not modify the injunctions it had earlier granted in favour of TCCC and against Mr Chauhan’s company. TCCC has maintained that even though it did not buy the Maaza trademark outside India, no agreement grants Mr Chauhan’s company the right to use the formulations sold to and owned by TCCC outside India

The Delhi High Court on Friday dismissed a petition by Global System for Mobile communications (GSM) operators against a government policy to permit use of dual technology for mobile services and revised spectrum allocation norms.

Film viewing gets cheaper in Delhi
Delhi Finance Minister A.K. Walia on Tuesday announced that the State Government had decided to reduce the entertainment tax on cinema from 30 per cent to 20 per cent. The decision was taken at a meeting presided over by Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit. Dr. Walia said the decision to slash entertainment tax on films was taken after examination of representations received from the National Association of Motion Picture Exhibitors and the Multiplex Association of India. The entertainment tax on cinema was 60 per cent up to March 31, 2003, before it was reduced by half — 30 per cent — with effect from April 1, 2003.
Expressing confidence that the reduction in entertainment tax would benefit the public, the Finance Minister said that after reduction in the rate of entertainment tax on cinema in 2003 the cinema sector started increasing the rates of tickets instead of passing on the benefit of tax reduction to the public.
“There are at present 56 cinema halls in Delhi of which 17 are multiplexes and the total number of screens is 99. Entertainment tax from the cinema sector is 17 per cent of the total entertainment tax collections per year. Seventeen multiplexes account for 80 per cent of the total tax collected from cinemas.

Sunita Narain: Change isn`t easy

Prize has held up, as champions, an organisation and individuals who are cautious, conservative and play strictly by the book when searching for answers to tackling climate change. There is nothing wrong in being so. Except that this is a time the world needs to re-invent what it means by growth and development. It needs hard answers for a crisis that is already hitting large parts of the poorest world, but has been created because of economic wealth and power.

But nobody says why, if it is so easy, is it that cities of the rich world have never made the transition to mass rapid transport — bus, light or metro rail — and restricted the growth of private gas-guzzling cars? In fact, all evidence shows transport- and personal vehicle-related greenhouse gas emissions are galloping in the rich ‘developed' world.

Dadi aur Mooch bachhon aur badon ke liye- sirf paanch rupayee- paanch rupayee, Beards and Moustaches for kids and elders only for five rupees. What looked like a collage student, standing beside me, took a piece and attached it to his clean-shaven youthful face. He then turned around to show it to his friends. One of them giggled loudly - you looking like a terrorist take it off;- he took it off but bought a piece anyways.
The man with the fake moustache and beard came near me and from his bag took out five pieces neatly wrapped in polyethylene bags. You want one, Sir?, he asked.
The man was from Bijnore, a small town; just four hours drive from Delhi. He learned the craft of making beards from Benaras. Everyday he gets up at four am in the morning and makes forty pairs of beards and moustaches and sells them for five rupees each. Mostly children buy them to play terrorist-terrorist.
Why do you think they sell? I asked casually while paying for the piece. To which he casually replied - Dar ka market hai bahiyya, fear has a market, brother.
