In terms of patent litigation, Lupin Ltd. appears to operate as a defending company. The provided case data shows one instance where Lupin Ltd. is listed as a defendant and zero as a plaintiff. This indicates that the company is primarily a target of patent infringement allegations rather than an entity actively asserting its own patent portfolio.
The sole tracked case involving Lupin Ltd. is "Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. v. Lupin Ltd. et al.," where Lupin Ltd. is a defendant. This case is being litigated in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware.
