Dispute Summary
Hindustan Unilever Limited (HUL) sued Beeru Mishra for infringement of its trademarks WHEEL, ACTIVE WHEEL, SURF, SURF EXCEL, and AARO DETERGENT POWDER, as well as copyright in the packaging design of ACTIVE WHEEL. Mishra was selling detergent powder under the mark 'AARO DETERGENT POWDER' with a logo and packaging deceptively similar to HUL’s registered marks and artistic work.
Outcome / Ruling
The Court granted an ad interim injunction restraining Mishra from using the infringing logo and packaging until August 26, 2019, and appointed a Special Officer to inventory Mishra’s stock.
