According to foreign media reports, Delhi, India's High court recently issued a ban on millet companies in the local market to import or sell mobile phones. At least in a short period of time, the millet mobile phone in the country's best-selling momentum has been suppressed. Ericsson India filed a complaint against Millet, which in Monday passed a unilateral injunction banning millet from importing or selling the company's smartphones to India. Media reports say the unilateral ban prohibits millet from selling, marketing, manufacturing or importing equipment that violates standard key patents. It is unclear whether the ban involves all the equipment that millet sells in India, or only those that violate the franchise. The judge also requested customs officials to discontinue the importation of related products in accordance with the intellectual property Law of 2007. Local officials were also assigned to the Millet office in India to oversee the implementation of the ban. Media said, may be because Millet deliberately ignore Ericsson's repeated communication, so the court issued a bad decree. According to the report, the case of the millet patent may be Ericsson before the prosecution of Micromax, Gionee and the British three companies involved in the patent. It is worth mentioning that the Delhi High Court had previously asked the local handset maker Micromax to pay the patent fee to Ericsson, the maximum cost of the product price of 1%. Micromax's equipment uses the patents of Ericsson, a Swedish company that is critical to handset production. Manu Jain, head of Millet India, told the media that the company had not received a formal notice from the court and was not aware of Manu Jain with Ericsson. He said India is an important market for millet, and the company's legal team is now assessing the situation according to media reports. Jain said that Millet will fully comply with the legal requirements of business and will cooperate with Ericsson to resolve disputes. Millet opened its branch in India in July 2014. According to the vice president of Millet, India is the second largest market for millet, but also the fastest growing market. By October, Millet had sold more than 500,000 smartphones. The company sold only a limited number of products through Flipkart weekend's flash-shopping activities. Millet always said its products sold out in a few seconds, which makes users dissatisfied, that they deliberately create a scarcity effect. The company's flagship product, the 3 smartphone, won 120,000 sales in the one-month period, then stopped selling. Millet only sell one type of smartphone at a time, the company is currently in the Red Meter note tablet phone. Millet plans to launch high-end smartphone 4 in the first quarter of 2015.
