Dispute Summary
FMI Limited (formerly Freemans Sales Pvt. Ltd.) sued Mr. Ashok Jain & Ors for trademark infringement and passing off, alleging that the defendants' use of 'FREEDOM' for measuring tapes was deceptively similar to FMI’s registered trademarks 'FREEMANS'. The plaintiff claimed the defendant, a former distributor, intentionally created confusion among customers.
Outcome / Ruling
The suit was partly decreed, granting a permanent injunction restraining the defendants from using 'FREEDOM' for measuring tapes but denying damages and delivery up due to lack of proven loss and non-launch of the product respectively.
