Showing 151–179Sterlite Technologies Limited v.Hfcl Limited
The Delhi High Court passed an order listing the issues in a suit for infringement and a counter-claim seeking revocation of the patent.

Vivek Verma & Ors. v.The Registrar Of Trademarks & Anr.
The Delhi High Court granted a stay on the registration of the trademark 'PALANG TORE MARD CHOURI PATTI' in favor of Vivek Verma & Ors. The court found that the Impugned Mark is identical or deceptively similar to the Appellant's existing marks, particularly considering the nature of the goods (chewing tobacco/gutkha) and the consumer base (illiterate sections). This decision highlights the high risk of market confusion when identical marks are used for related products.
Ms Anuradha Sharma & Anr. v.Jiva Ayurvedic Pharmacy Limited & Ors.
The Delhi High Court stayed an interim injunction granted by the Commercial Court, which had prohibited Ms. Anuradha Sharma's use of her registered trademark 'SHATAM JEEVA'. The court found that a prima facie case existed for the appellant to challenge the order, particularly regarding the lack of sufficient evidence demonstrating goodwill and likelihood of confusion in the passing off action. Furthermore, the High Court issued a directive to Commercial Courts, mandating clear findings on whether an injunction is based on infringement or passing off, and requiring positive proof of goodwill in passing off cases.
Pachranga International Inc. v.Vishisht Malik Trading As M/S Pachranga Food Industries
Pachranga International Inc. filed an application alleging that Vishisht Malik Trading As M/S Pachranga Food Industries willfully disobeyed a prior court order dated 11.03.2025, which restrained the defendant from dealing in products bearing deceptive labels and infringing on the plaintiff's registered design, copyright, and trademarks. The plaintiff alleged continued violation through manufacturing and online sales using similar branding. In response, the defendant undertook to modify the trade dress of its label by changing the color and font, while also confirming the removal of specified URLs.
Himalaya Wellness Company & Ors. v.Greenland Trading Company
The Delhi High Court granted an interim injunction in favor of Himalaya Wellness Company, finding a prima facie case of trademark infringement and passing off against Greenland Trading Company. The court recognized 'HIMALAYA' as a well-known mark due to its extensive global use since 1930. Given the potential for consumer confusion in the health and wellness sector, the court restrained the defendant from using deceptively similar marks until further hearing.
Ajay Alias Vishal Veeru Devgan v.The Artists Planet & Ors.

Consequently, the matter was remanded back to the Registrar for fresh consideration, without prejudging the merits of the registration claim.
