Dispute Summary
The Delhi High Court addressed a trademark infringement suit filed by The Indian Express Limited against Express Publications Madurai Limited. While the plaintiff alleged that the defendants' use of 'The New Indian Express Group' constituted illegal infringement and passing off, the court found no valid ground to grant an injunction. However, to prevent consumer confusion, the court imposed a condition requiring the defendants to append 'Madurai' and their place of publication when using the expression outside the territories permitted by prior agreements.
