Dispute Summary
A.D.Padmasingh Isaac (trading as Aachi Spices and Foods) sued Arasan Food Products for trademark infringement and passing off, alleging that Arasan's use of 'ARASAN MASALA' with a similar colour scheme and get-up to Aachi’s ‘AACHI MASALA SAMBAR POWDER’ created consumer confusion. The dispute centered on the deceptive similarity between the labels used for Sambar Masala, Rasam Masala, Chicken Masala, and Mutton Masala.
Outcome / Ruling
The court allowed the suit, granting a permanent injunction restraining Arasan from manufacturing, selling, advertising, or offering for sale spices and masalas using similar get-up and colour schemes, and directing them to surrender infringing materials.
