Dispute Summary
The Madras High Court dismissed the applicant's requests for an interim injunction against trademark infringement and passing off. The court found that despite the similarity between 'NAGA' and 'AAGA', there was no convincing prima facie case, noting that the respondent had been using their mark openly since 2006 with significant advertising expenditure. Furthermore, the court highlighted the delay in the applicant filing suit (only after receiving a cease and desist notice in 2011) as a critical factor against granting immediate relief.
