Dispute Summary
The Delhi High Court dismissed the petition filed by General Electric Company Of India against the Trade Marks Registry's decision to allow the registration of 'Gec'. The court upheld the Registrar's finding that despite both marks using similar letters, the petitioner's mark ('G.E.C.') was incapable of phonetic pronunciation due to the full stops and capital script, while the respondent's mark ('Gec') could be easily pronounced. Consequently, the court found no deceptive similarity.
