Plaintiff's interim injunction applications fail: although there is a triable dispute, the plaintiff's case lacks sufficient factual strength at interlocutory stage; the balance of convenience and justice favours defendants because the injunction sought is quasi-mandatory and would cause immediate, significant, and irreparable prejudice while plaintiff's alleged losses are capable of being compensated by damages; and plaintiff failed equitable prerequisites (unreasonable delay, incomplete full and frank disclosure in the ex parte application, issues as to clean hands and procedural abuse).

The substituted service was invalid because the creditor failed to prove due diligence and omitted material contractual facts in an ex parte application, and clause (r) fixed an overseas (China) service address which the creditor could not ignore without seeking leave to serve out of jurisdiction; actual knowledge cannot cure the defective service, therefore the Deputy Senior Registrar correctly set aside the substituted service and that decision is upheld.

The Anton Piller Order was correctly granted and should be maintained because the Plaintiff demonstrated a strong prima facie case based on forensic listings and circumstantial linkage to subsequent commercial activity, the potential harm from misuse of confidential materials is serious and irreversible, there was a real possibility evidence could be destroyed or concealed given the digital transfers and cloud storage, no material non-disclosure was established, and the execution complied with supervisory safeguards; therefore defendants' applications to set aside or stay the Order fail.

The ex parte injunction was set aside because the Plaintiffs failed the strict duty of full and frank disclosure (notably non‑disclosure of the controlling 2023 decision) and did not furnish a valid undertaking as to damages; additionally Plaintiffs, as co‑opted State Chairmen, lack locus standi under binding precedent so no serious triable issue exists and the AGM and subsequent removals were valid under the AoA, therefore the originating summons is dismissed.
