Dispute Summary
Ifb Industries Limited sued Mehul Bharatbhai Vavdiya and others for trademark infringement, alleging that their use of 'LFB' on top load liquid detergent was deceptively similar to Ifb’s ‘IFB’ and ‘IFB ESSENTIALS’ marks used on detergents and other consumer goods. The petitioner claimed the respondent’s actions were intended to mislead consumers and capitalize on Ifb’s established goodwill, following a prior passing off suit.
Outcome / Ruling
The court granted an interim injunction in terms of prayer (a) of the Notice of Motion, directing the respondents to cease using the 'LFB' mark and requiring them to file an affidavit in opposition within two weeks.
