However, defendant 1 has been incorporated on 22-07-2022 and is engaged in the business of manufacturing and selling alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">Defendant 2 is an importer of the beer bearing the impugned Mark\/label. Defendant 3, claiming itself to be the proprietor of the mark &#8220;TENSBERG&#8221;, has applied for seeking registration of the same in the word mark and also in the device mark. Defendant 4 is a company incorporated on 01-04-2022 and is engaged in the business of manufacturing and selling of beer with the impugned mark and label in India.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">The plaintiff asserts that the defendant 5 is in the business of manufacturing, brewing and exporting of beer bearing the marks &#8220;TENSBERG&#8221; and under the impugned trade dress from Nepal to India, while the defendant 6 is the Indian subsidiary registered on 06-01-2021.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">The conflicting marks are<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/MicrosoftTeams-image-83-282x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"282\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-274043\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/09_Carlsberg-2-300x193.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"193\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-274024\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court noted that prima facie, the mark of the plaintiff and the defendants appear to be deceptively similar. There is phonetic similarity between the same.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court further noted that there can also be no doubt of the plaintiff being the proprietor and prior adopter of the mark &#8216;CARLSBERG&#8217; and with its registration, having a better right over the defendants, who on their own case, adopted the said mark in India only in 2018, and do not hold registration in the said mark.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court remarked that Beer bottles and cans are not bought with minute scrutiny but in a more casual manner. Applying the test of an unwary consumer with imperfect recollection, the two marks and their trade dress, prima facie appear to be deceptively similar and likely to deceive and confuse such Consumer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court opined that it is not only the use of the mark alone but also get-up of the product, that is, bottle and the Can which prima facie indicates the intent of the defendants to ride on the reputation and goodwill of the plaintiff, thereby, causing confusion and deception to the mind of unwary consumers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court thus held that the plaintiff has been able to make out a good prima facie case in its favour. The balance of convenience is also in favour of the plaintiff and against the defendants. The plaintiff is likely to suffer grave irreparable injury if an ad-interim injunction is not granted in favour of the plaintiff and against the defendants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #632423;\">Carlsberg Breweries A\/S v.
