Dwarkadas Dhanji Sha v.Chhotalal Ravicarandas And Co.
The plaintiffs claimed ownership of a registered textile design and sued for infringement. The defendants argued that the design was previously published and therefore invalid. The court addressed whether the registration certificate is conclusive proof of originality or if prior publication could be raised as a defense.
Hiralal Banjara v.Bashiram Sharma And Ors.
Hiralal Banjara sought rectification of a patent register entry after the execution sale of his rights was set aside by the High Court. The case involved complex issues regarding the scope of the Controller's power and whether Hiralal Banjara qualified as an aggrieved person.
J.C. Eno Limited v.Vishnu Chemical Co.
J.C. Eno Limited filed a passing off action against Vishnu Chemical Co., alleging that the defendants were selling saline under the name "Falaxar," which was a colorable imitation of the plaintiffs' well-known marks, "Eno" and "Fruit Salt." The court found that the plaintiffs had established a wide reputation for their product in India. Consequently, the court granted an injunction against the defendant while awarding profits to the plaintiff.
