AFAIK, a generic word such as " Super " cannot be trade marked. During the original case , it was not registered ( although being shown so by the Plaintiff, initially and the Defendant had also filed an application for same which was not decided till the time of the case decision )
See original case at :

Super Refrigeration Pvt. Ltd. vs Super Sales Corporation on 6 November, 1996
Here the Case was NOT dismissed as withdrawn, instead the application of the Plaintiff claiming their right to sole use of the word " Super" was dismissed. Even an action for " passing off" - where someone uses a Mark to use/damage the reputation of an existing Mark was not held since the Defendant was prominently putting " Maini" as well , along with the word " Super" . This is how I understand the case.
Maybe that is why the later case you refer to was withdrawn.
