Dispute Summary
The Delhi High Court addressed an application seeking to stay a trade mark infringement suit due to pending rectification proceedings. The court ruled that while the suit claiming infringement of a registered trademark must be stayed until the validity of the registration is determined, the separate claim for 'passing off' can continue independently. This nuanced decision clarifies the scope of Section 124 of the Trade Marks Act, allowing parties to pursue related claims even when one aspect of the litigation is paused.
