Dispute Summary
The Bombay High Court dismissed an appeal filed by Deccan Bottling & Distilling Industries Private Limited against a temporary injunction granted in favor of Brihan Maharashtra Sugar Syndicate Limited. The dispute centered on alleged passing off and trademark infringement related to country liquor labels ('Paru Santra' vs 'Sakhu Santra'). While the trial court had found prima facie evidence of deceptive similarity, the High Court upheld this finding, confirming that the plaintiff (respondent) had established a sufficient case for injunction based on the visual impression of the competing marks.
