Dispute Summary
Hindustan Unilever Limited (HUL) sued Ajay Kheria for infringing its trademarks 'SURF/SURF EXCEL' and 'EXCEL' used on detergent powder, alleging that Kheria was selling a product called 'SUPREME WHITE EXCEL' with packaging deceptively similar to HUL’s Surf Excel. The court considered whether Kheria’s use of the mark constituted infringement and if an interim protective order was warranted.
Outcome / Ruling
The Court granted an interim order restraining Ajay Kheria from manufacturing, selling, or distributing 'SUPREME WHITE EXCEL' and appointed a Special Officer to inventory infringing goods and prevent further sales.
