No.

Any judgment is made on the facts of individual to individual cases and that is meant to be binding on that particular case only, not affecting any other case of any other court. However, the said judgment can be cited in any other case also, if all the circumstances and facts are of similar nature of the already decided case. Still that depends if the judge of the case is convinced on that and decides to pronounces judgment on the precident of the said judgment.

Agreed with explanation of Shri Dhingraji.

No case is same. It differ in fact, and presiding Judge will consider, whether to apply or not.
It is not necessarily of its subordinate court, it mat be of any other state HC

It is not the similarity of facts that matters, but the ratio laid down in the judgment.
