Arihant Cosmetics
Dispute Summary
The Madras High Court ruled in favor of Aravind Laboratories, holding that Arihant Cosmetics was guilty of trademark infringement and passing off. The court found that Arihant's use of the deceptively similar mark 'EYE-TOP,' coupled with an identical get-up, color scheme, and packaging design for their kajal product, constituted a clear violation of Aravind's established goodwill associated with its registered trademark 'EYETEX.' Consequently, the court made the interim injunction absolute, preventing Arihant from continuing to market the infringing goods.
