In addition to Anil Satyagrahas contribution I'd like to add that whenever there is a wilful disobedience of injunction order you can get the remedy of exemplary damages and also the person who committed breach of injunction will be liable for civil contempt of court for which punishment is 6 months imprisonment and fine.

An excellent lecture by expert Mr. Anil Satyagrah meant for legal persona which may be of "little" or "no use" for a layman.
