Bombay HC restrains Innovation Coatings (P) Ltd. from using “INOVA 1K PUR” mark; grants interim injunction to Pidilite for mark “1K PUR” for adhesive products
The defendant’s contention that the expression “1K PUR” is common to trade or publici juris, was rejected and the Court opined that a party asserting that a word/expression has become common to trade must satisfy the test of extensive, actual, and continuous use of such an expression in the market.
