Prathiba M Singh, J., restrained the defendant 1 to 4 from using the marks &#8216;WQVV&#8217; or any other mark that is identical or deceptively similar to the plaintiff&#8217;s trade mark &#8216;WOW&#8217;, including the device and logo form of the &#8216;WOW&#8217; marks, for the manufacture and sale of products.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The plaintiff&#8217;s case is that it uses the brand &#8216;WOW&#8217; for many products, including supplements, herbal blends, creams, serums, lotions, shampoos, bath &amp; body products, essential oils, etc. The plaintiff operates a website at www.buywow.in and has registered various other websites to promote its products. It also has a substantial presence on social media. The products of the plaintiff are sold in extremely distinctive containers, featuring a unique trade dress and colour combination of dark brown, white and gold. The plaintiff asserts rights in the trade mark &#8216;WOW&#8217;, the writing style of the said mark, and the trade dress. In addition, the plaintiff also claims design registration in respect of the plaintiff&#8217;s shampoo product. The plaint avers that the plaintiff has successfully protected its products and trade dress from infringement by initiating legal proceedings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">In the present suit, defendant 1 is VBRO Skincare Limited, defendants 2 and 3 are the proprietor of VBRO Skincare Pvt. Ltd., and proprietor of an entity named Vkeshbund Pvt., respectively, defendant 4 is Herbocare Herbal Products, which is believed to be the manufacturer of the alleged infringing products. Defendants 5 to 7 are respectively, Amazon Seller Services Private Limited, Flipkart Internet Pvt. Ltd., and Acevector Limited (&#8216;Snapdeal&#8217;). The plaint averred that the plaintiff discovered listings for hair care products under the marks &#8216;VBRO&#8217; and &#8216;WQVV&#8217; on various e-commerce platforms, particularly on those of Defendant 5 to 7. These &#8216;WQVV&#8217; products were found to infringe the plaintiff&#8217;s trade mark rights in the &#8216;WOW&#8217; mark, and their trade dress also seemed imitative of the plaintiff&#8217;s &#8216;WOW&#8217; range of products. The grievance in the present case is that the defendants, who sell identical products under the mark &#8216;VBRO&#8217; and &#8216;WQVV&#8217; have copied and imitated the entire trade dress, get up, lay out, colour combination, writing style of the plaintiff&#8217;s &#8216;WOW&#8217; products.<\/p>\n<p style=\"\">The conflicting marks are<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%; text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/10_Just-looking-like-a-wow-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/10_Just-looking-like-a-wow-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\"\/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/10_Just-looking-like-a-wow-2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/10_Just-looking-like-a-wow-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"270\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court noted that insofar as the trade dress, get up and colour combination is concerned, the case is one of <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">res ipsa loquitur<\/span>, where the imitation is writ large. The containers and the products sold by the Defendants are almost complete imitations of the Plaintiff&#8217;s products. The way &#8216;WQVV&#8217; is depicted could easily confuse any consumer into believing that the impugned products manufactured by Defendant 1-4 is a &#8216;WOW&#8217; product, especially, with the elongated &#8216;W&#8217; in the third letter. The writing style and various descriptors on the containers are also identical. Even the products manufactured and sold under the mark &#8216;VBRO&#8217; have an identical trade dress.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Thus, the Court concluded that the defendants&#8217; products could be passed off as those of the plaintiff. The defendants&#8217; products are available on various e-commerce platforms such as Amazon, Flipkart and SnapDeal. The plaintiff has made out a prima facie, case for grant of an injunction. Balance of convenience lies in favour of the plaintiff, and irreparable harm would be caused, if an injunction was not granted.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court restrained Defendants 1 to 4 from manufacturing, selling, offering for sale any personal care, household products, cosmetic and household products in a trade dress, colour combination, get up, lay out, arrangement or in containers that substantially imitate the Plaintiff&#8217;s trade dress, containers and products. The Court also directed defendant 5 to 7, which are e-commerce platforms, to take down the listings as set out in Document 1 to the plaint.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #632423;\">Body Cupid Pvt Ltd. v.
