Dispute Summary
The Delhi High Court overturned an Intellectual Property Appellate Board (IPAB) decision that had dismissed a rectification application concerning the trademark 'RESPONSE'. The court held that the IPAB's interpretation of 'person aggrieved' was contrary to law, especially when marks and goods are identical. Furthermore, the High Court found factual inconsistencies in the IPAB's assessment regarding the petitioner's use of the mark. Consequently, the matter was remanded back to the IPAB for a fresh hearing.
