Dispute Summary
Lotte India Corporation Ltd. (formerly Parrys Confectionery Limited) sued Cadbury UK Limited and Mondelez India Foods Private Limited, alleging that a cease-and-desist notice regarding the use of trademarks 'CARAMILK' and 'ECLAIRS' was unjustified. Both companies manufacture confectionery products, with Lotte claiming prior user rights in India for these marks while Cadbury asserted ownership based on international registrations.
Outcome / Ruling
The suit was dismissed with costs, finding that the cease-and-desist notice issued by Cadbury was not an unjustified threat under Section 142 of the Trademarks Act.
