The Court directed that the impugned mark &#8216;AL-WALIMAH&#8217; in Class 30 should be removed from the Register of Trade Marks, and the website of Respondent 2, Registrar of Trade Marks should be updated accordingly.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Background<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Petitioner, while the matter was pending before the Court, was successful in two of its trade mark registration applications and the mark &#8216;AL-WALIMAH&#8217; was registered in its favour in respect of marks <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/09_removal-of-mark-AL-WALIMAH-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/09_removal-of-mark-AL-WALIMAH-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"60\" height=\"80\" \/><\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/09_removal-of-mark-AL-WALIMAH-2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/09_removal-of-mark-AL-WALIMAH-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"60\" height=\"80\" \/><\/a> for goods in Class 30, namely, rice. Petitioner sold Indian Basmati rice majorly in Middle Eastern countries under the trade mark &#8216;AL-WALIMAH&#8217;. Petitioner claimed that the said mark means &#8220;the reception&#8221; in Arabic; and that the said mark was registered in petitioner&#8216;s favour in several Middle Eastern countries. Petitioner also applied for registration of the mark &#8216;AL-WALIMAH&#8217; through five applications in India, all of which were opposed by Respondent 1.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Respondent 1 filed an application for registration of the mark &#8216;AL-WALIMAH&#8217; in Class 30 claiming user since 1-04-1975. Since no opposition was filed post publication, the impugned mark was registered in Respondent 1&#8217;s favour on 13-11-1995. Petitioner claimed that the said mark was neither used by Respondent 1 prior to filing of application nor any time thereafter. Petitioner&#8217;s counsel submitted that Respondent 1 had business relations with petitioner and was, therefore, aware of the use of the mark by petitioner and thus Respondent 1 had dishonestly applied for the mark in India and got the impugned registration.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Further, petitioner&#8217;s counsel submitted that as per Section 47(1)(b) of the Act, the expiry of five years and three months would be on 13-02-2001, much prior to the present petition being filed. Further, it was claimed that petitioner had established prior use of the trade mark &#8216;AL-WALIMAH&#8217; and had acquired reputation and goodwill in the said mark. Petitioner claimed to be the owner of mark &#8216;AL-WALIMAH&#8217; and was in continuous and extensive use since 1980, therefore, it claimed to be a &#8220;person aggrieved&#8221; under Section 47 of the Act.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Analysis, Law, and Decision<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The issue for consideration was <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">&#8220;whether the mark &#8216;AL-WALIMAH&#8217; was liable to be removed under Section 47 of the Act on the ground of non-use?&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court relied on <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Hardie Trading Ltd. v.

Further, no rice product under the impugned mark was found in the market survey of relevant shops in Amritsar and Delhi, nor did any shopkeeper expressed any knowledge in that regard.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court relied on <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Disney Enterprises I.N.C. v.
