SC reserves judgement on Bajaj-TVS patent case

The Supreme Court today reserved its judgement on the patent case between two-wheeler rivals Bajaj Auto and TVS Motor.      

The two companies have been locked in a legal tussle over the usage of twin spark technology.      

Bajaj Auto had opposed the use of the technology by TVS in one of its products, Flame, a 125 cc bike. The Pune-based company had claimed that its Chennai-rival was infringing on its patent.      

The apex court had earlier prevented TVS from selling the Flame motorcycle, although there was no restriction imposed in its production.
