Dispute Summary
The Delhi High Court ruled in favor of Philip Morris Products S.A., finding that the defendants were engaged in both counterfeit and grey market sales of MARLBORO cigarettes, constituting trademark infringement and passing off. The court granted permanent injunctions to protect the brand's goodwill and awarded nominal damages against the infringing retailers. This judgment reinforces the protection afforded to established global brands against unauthorized use, even by small vendors.
