Delhi High Court Closes ANI’s ₹2 Crore Copyright Suit Against PTI After Settlement

The Delhi High Court closed ANI Media Pvt. Ltd.’s ₹2 crore copyright infringement suit against Press Trust of India (PTI) after the parties reached a settlement agreement.

Justice Jyoti Singh disposed of the matter and permitted ANI to withdraw the suit.

ANI had filed the case in 2024 alleging that PTI unlawfully reproduced a video shot by ANI’s cameraperson and shared it on social media platform X.

The Court recorded the settlement terms and held them to be lawful. In view of the settlement, ANI was also granted refund of the court fees paid in the matter.
