Dispute Summary
The Delhi High Court dismissed the appeal filed by Osram, which sought to oppose Shyam Sunder's trademark registration for 'OSHAM' in Class 11. The court held that despite the phonetic similarity between 'OSRAM' and 'OSHAM', there was no tangible danger of confusion because the goods were distinct articles marketed through different channels. Furthermore, the court ruled that a prior registration in one class does not grant an exclusive monopoly over all related goods in another class.
