Sec 36 to 37 Chapter VII (Injunctions Generally) The Specific Relief Act, 1963

36. Preventive relief how granted.—

Preventive relief is granted at the discretion of the court by injunction, temporary or perpetual.

37. Temporary and perpetual injunctions.—

   (1) Temporary injunctions are such as are to continue until a specific time, or until the further order of the court, and they may be granted at any stage of a suit, and are regulated by the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 (5 of 1908).

   (2) A perpetual injunction can only be granted by the decree made at the hearing and upon the merits of the suit; the defendant is thereby perpetually enjoined from the assertion of a right, or from the commission of an act, which would be contrary to the rights of the plaintiff.
