Dispute Summary
SMC Foods Limited sued M/S Chaudhary Paneer Bhandar alleging infringement of its MADHUSUDAN trademarks (Classes 29 & 30) and passing off, claiming the defendants were using a deceptively similar mark 'MADHUSANIA' and trade dress for yogurt/curd products. SMC Foods argued the defendants’ packaging was confusingly similar to their own, creating a likelihood of consumer deception.
Outcome / Ruling
The plaint was registered as a suit, summons were issued, and an interim injunction was granted restraining the defendants from using MADHUSANIA or similar marks/trade dress in respect of yogurt/curd products until the next hearing on October 10, 2023.
