Whether court can grant injunction even if there is no application for injunction?

Learned counsel for the petitioner states that the petitioner
has no objection to the impugned order, by which the preliminary
issue   has   been   framed.   However,   the   petitioner   is   aggrieved   by
denial of interim relief, which, the petitioner is entitled to press in
terms of Section 9A(2) of the CPC.
3] In this case, the impugned order does not reject any interim
relief. All that, learned Trial Judge has observed that there was no
application   for   interim   relief   and   in   the   absence   of   any   such
application, there is no question of consideration of any prayer for

interim relief. Learned counsel for the petitioner points out that in
the reply filed to the motion for framing of preliminary issue, the
petitioner had applied for interim relief. 
4] From the perusal of the reply, there does not appear to be any
such prayer. In any case, it is only appropriate that the petitioner, if,
is   seriously   interested   in   any   interim   relief   should   take   out   an
appropriate   application,   which   can   always   be   considered   in
accordance with law by learned Trial Court. Accordingly, there is
absolutely no case is made out to interfere with the impugned order.
