Dispute Summary
Reckitt Benckiser India Private Limited sued Mr. Sharad Jagat Pal Shrivastav for infringement of its 'HARPIC' trademark, alleging the defendant was using a confusingly similar mark 'HAPRIC' on toilet cleaning products in packaging that mimicked Reckitt’s distinctive blue and red bottle trade dress. The Defendant failed to appear in court despite service.
Outcome / Ruling
The suit was decreed in favor of Reckitt Benckiser, granting a permanent injunction restraining the Defendant from using 'HAPRIC' and similar trade dress, and ordering the payment of Rs. 13,50,000 as damages.
