Dispute Summary
The Madras High Court dismissed Original Side Appeals filed by Unimed Technologies Ltd. and Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited against a prior order dismissing their injunction application. The court found that the mark 'TOBA', being derived from the generic chemical term Tobramycin, was publici juris. Furthermore, the court noted factual dissimilarities in color schemes and symbols between the products, concluding there was no prima facie case of passing off or consumer confusion, especially since both drugs are sold under prescription by specialized physicians.
