Dispute Summary
Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. sued Dr. Reddys Laboratories Ltd. & Anr. for trademark infringement, alleging that Dr. Reddys was using the word 'SUN' on sunscreen product labels (VENUSIA) in a manner likely to cause confusion with Sun Pharma’s SUN/SUN PHARMA trademarks. The dispute centered around whether Dr. Reddys’ use of 'SUN' constituted bona fide descriptive use or an infringing trademark.
Outcome / Ruling
The court granted an ad-interim injunction, directing Dr. Reddys to maintain status quo and cease further manufacturing under the impugned labels until the next hearing date.
