Dispute Summary
The Madras High Court allowed the petition filed by Apex Laboratories Private Limited seeking rectification and cancellation of a trademark registration granted to K.Prasad Reddy. The court found that the respondent's registration for 'ZINCOVIT' under Class 29 was mischievous and fraudulent, as the petitioner had been a prior user and proprietor of the mark since 1988/1990. Given the clear evidence of malafide intent and copying, the High Court ruled in favor of Apex Laboratories.
