Dispute Summary
This Madras High Court judgment addressed applications for interim injunctions concerning the alleged infringement and passing off related to snuff packaging designs (get-up and color scheme). The court found that neither party provided sufficient, valid documentary evidence to establish prior use or originality regarding the distinctive sachet design. Consequently, the applications seeking permanent injunctions were dismissed, though the respondent was directed to submit periodic accounts.
