TIPS Industries receives favourable judgment in dispute against Wynk
Mumbai: TIPS Industries Ltd., India’s music label and a leading player in the music and entertainment industry, has announced that the company had received a favourable judgement from the Division Bench of the Hon’ble Bombay High Court in their legal proceedings against Wynk Ltd. The judgment highlighted the fact that Wynk Ltd. had utilised TIPS Industries’ content without a formal commercial arrangement and disallowed Wnyk from using any part of the TIPS repertoire and upheld previous single bench judgment by the Hon’ble Justice S J Kathawalla.
A spokesperson from TIPS Industries Ltd. said, “We hold the court’s decision in high regard and appreciate its thorough examination of the case. Our primary objective throughout this process has been to ensure that the rights of copyright holders are upheld. We hope this judgment will serve as a landmark for similar cases in the entertainment industry, emphasising the importance of copyright laws.”
The court’s judgment provides a detailed and objective interpretation of certain provisions of the Section 31D of the Copyright Act, 1957.
In summary, a dispute between TIPS Industries and Wynk Ltd. concerned the utilisation of TIPS Industries’ repertoire by Wynk Ltd. without an established commercial agreement. Over the course of the dispute, despite multiple communications and efforts to reach a commercial resolution, a mutual agreement could not be achieved. As a result, TIPS Industries requested Wynk to remove the entire TIPS repertoire from its platform, failing which and followed by a statutory license notice issued by Wynk to Tips, Tips had to seek refuge under the legislative framework before the Hon’ble Bombay High Court.
Tips managing director Kumar Taurani had to say, “It’s been a long journey on this case, since 2016 from its start and between Covid-19 and right until today. We are grateful for this order and sincerely thank the judicial system. There’s no doubt that we have lost business and faced losses over these last 7 years but this judgement paves the way forward for all copyright holders. We are here to do business and now that there’s a clear legal mandate we hope that this will further fuel Tips’s growth.”

MUMBAI: Shipra Khanna just packed her bags and her flavours because when a celebrated chef takes you on a global plate tour, even the couch starts feeling like first-class. Warner Bros. Discovery India has announced the launch of World On My Plate with Shipra Khanna, a new travel and food series set to premiere on TLC on 29 March at 7:00 PM.

Across three visually rich episodes, Shipra journeys to global destinations to explore not just what people eat, but why they eat it, uncovering the stories, traditions and human connections behind every dish. The series opens in London, weaving its iconic landmarks with diverse culinary scenes, before moving to Spain’s vineyards, olive orchards and coastal kitchens.
Warner Bros. Discovery head of advertising revenues for South Asia Tanaz Mehta said: “At TLC, our focus has always been on bringing authentic stories that reflect how people live and connect.

In a world where travel shows often feel like distant postcards, Shipra Khanna is serving up something far more personal: a passport to cultures through their kitchens, proving that the best way to understand a place is still through the plate.
