Dispute Summary
Anjani Kumar Goenka & Anr (plaintiffs) sued Om Education Trust & Anr (defendants) for trademark infringement, alleging deceptive similarity between the plaintiffs' registered trademarks 'GOENKA,' 'G.D.GOENKA,' and 'GD GOENKA SCHOOL' and the defendants’ school name 'GOENKA INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL.' The dispute centered on whether the defendant's bona fide use of the surname 'Goenka' constituted infringement given the plaintiff's prior extensive use and registration.
Outcome / Ruling
The Court confirmed the interim injunction restraining the defendants from using the mark 'GOENKA INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL,' allowing them to continue using the name for the current academic year while pursuing a name change with CBSE.
