Dispute Summary
Glaxo Group Limited sued Rajesh Bansal and others for trademark infringement, alleging that their use of 'BENATE-N' for skin ointments infringed Glaxo’s registered trademarks 'BETNOVATE', 'DEPENDAL', and 'CROCIN'. The dispute centered on whether 'BENATE-N' was deceptively similar to 'BETNOVATE' and constituted passing off.
Outcome / Ruling
The Court granted a permanent injunction restraining the defendants from using 'BENATE' or deceptively similar marks but denied relief concerning packaging similarity; punitive damages of INR 5 lakhs were awarded along with costs.
