Outcome
Remanded

Headnote

Opposition deemed abandoned under Rule 45(2) because the letter electing not to adduce evidence was emailed to the Mumbai office rather than Chennai. Set aside: the communication was addressed to the Chennai Registrar, so there was substantial compliance with Rule 45(1). Grant of a registration certificate during a timely appeal under interim stay does not make the appeal infructuous. Remanded for decision on merits in three months.
