Delhi High Court has affirmed that the trademarks of French fashion house Louis Vuitton are “well-known”.
Louis Vuitton had filed a lawsuit against Arif Khatri, the owner of a shop in Lajpat Nagar which was dealing in counterfeit goods bearing the company’s registered trademarks. Louis Vuitton accused Khatri and the shop (named as the second defendant) of dealing in goods which infringed, diluted and damaged its marks and of passing off these goods as those of Louis Vuitton.
On 29 January, the court granted an interim injunction restraining the defendants from dealing in counterfeit Louis Vuitton goods and also appointed a local commissioner to visit the shop and seize all such goods and related documents.
