As the plaintiff has got fresh cause of action, so he can opt both remedies. He could have got filed an application under order 1 rule 10 as well as another application under order 6 rule 17 cpc but prior notice under section 80 CPC cannot be made in ongoing suit so he rightly opted filing separate suit to avoid all such techinical matters.

The Court can stay the later suit for issuing the licence and can also sine die adjourn till the disposal of the First case as the later is related to the decision of the First. if the first case is decreed than the later will automatically lapse and if dismissed then later is relevent.
