TRADEMARK QUOTE OF THE WEEK A good trademark, whether a word mark or symbol, is devoid of fashion or trend, which makes it potentially iconic if it’s seen for long enough in the right places. -Ivan Chermayeff TRADEMARK STATS Trademark Stats from the Indian Trademark office (30th March – 5th April 2017) Activity at the Trademark Registry has been slow in the past week; In addition to a 50 % decrease in total registrations, there has also been a significant decrease of nearly 66% in the total applications disposed through show cause hearings.

The registration was however denied on the ground that the sound produced by Harley’s motorcycles was not any different to the sound produced by other two wheeler vehicles using similar engines. Apple’s “App Store” APP STORE is short for Application store and one may think that there can be no protection over such generic terms. However, the tech giant was granted protection for the term APP STORE by the USPTO in 2015. While the word is synonymous with Apple, the term is slowly becoming generic in nature as a number of entities have started using the term. INDIAN TRADEMARK NEWS Microsoft introduces new Chatbot AI ‘Ruuh’ for India Microsoft has released yet another AI Chatbot dubbed Ruuh, exclusively for Indian users. Ruuh, created for entertainment purposes, has interests on music, Bollywood, humor, travel, sports and internet browsing. Microsoft had applied for trademark registration for the mark RUUH before the Indian Trademark Office on 15thMarch, 2017 Delhi HC restrains Platinum Industries from using the mark KAMDHENU The Delhi High Court recently passed an injunction order against M/s Platinum Ispat industries private limited, Patna from using the marks SUPER KAMDHENU & MAHAN KAMDHENU in relation to TMT Steels. In a trademark infringement and passing off petition filed by Kamdhenu Limited, pioneers in steel and paint industry, the Delhi High Court found that the marks SUPER KAMDHENU & MAHAN KAMDHENU are deceptively similar to the registered mark KAMDHENU. The Patna company is therefore restrained from using, selling, soliciting, exporting, displaying, advertising ‘SUPER KAMDHENU’ & ‘MAHAN KAMDHENU’ in relation to TMT bars and other allied goods which are identical/similar to the mark ‘KAMDHENU’. Additionally, Court has also appointed a local commissioner to seize the materials related to ‘SUPER KAMDHENU’ & “MAHAN KAMDHENU’. INTERNATIONAL TRADEMARK UPDATES Trademark Registrations in China reach soaring heights According to a recent report published in the New Zealand Herald, trademark registrations in China have increased significantly in the recent times. There has always been a misconception surrounding the country that the manufacture of cheap goods by China, ultimately result in Intellectual Property Rights taking a back seat. However, in light of the available statistics, an increased awareness of IP laws would present a great investment opportunity to China from foreign entities. It will be interesting to see how this enhanced IP awareness is going to affect IP enforcement in the territory. Sale of Counterfeit products to increase drastically by 2022 According to a recent report published by the International Trademark Association and the International Chamber of Commerce, the sales of counterfeit products is all set to increase exorbitantly worldwide with an estimated value of such products reaching $2.3 trillion by 2022. Despite the various measures adopted by governments and businesses worldwide in trying to stop this menace, the production of counterfeit goods has always existed and has only increased with time. It is to be noted that according to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, China and India are the biggest sources of counterfeit medicines which not only pose a serious risk to public health and safety but also lead to great losses of revenue. TRADEMARK BRAND/LICENSING Burberry signs $225 million licensing deal with Coty The renowned British luxury brand, Burberry recently announced that it had signed a deal of $225 million in total with Coty the pioneer in fragrances and cosmetics brand. By licensing its brand, Burberry is looking to benefit from the global distribution network and industrial expertise of Coty. VP Racing Fuels enters into new trademark license agreement with Maverick Performance products. The global leader in the field of manufacturing and distribution of unleaded and leaded racing fuel and other related lubricants, VP Fuels recently entered into a trademark licensing agreement with Maverick Performance Products, LLC to manufacture, market and sell its products in U.S., Canada and Mexico. Further, VP Fuels through an announcement introduced a new product by the name of VP FASTLUBE which shall be soon introduced to the quick lube industry. DOMAIN NAME INFRINGEMENT Googlee.in is deceptively similar to Google.in says Delhi High Court The popular web search engine, Google Inc., recently won the favor of the Delhi High Court in an appeal filed by the domain registrant googlee.in. In 2007, the alleged infringer had applied for the domain “googlee.in with the .IN Registry which was surprisingly granted and was further renewed till 2020, which prompted Google to issue a cease and desist notice to the infringer in 2010. When there was no response to the notice, Google initiated proceedings under the INDRP Rules and received a favourable order from the Arbitrator. The matter was later appealed to the Delhi High Court, where the Court upheld the decision of the arbitrator citing that the domain name of the infringer was confusingly similar to Google in addition to the the website being almost identical to that of Google. BIP TIP OF THE WEEK: While choosing a trade mark for a business it is important to identify all similar marks that are currently in use in the market by performing a trademark search in the trademark database as well as the common law database (Google and other search engine searches). Once the potential brand names are shortlisted the following questions need to be answered: Whether any mark similar to the shortlisted mark is listed in the online database maintained by the Trademark Office or in the common law databases? If yes, then do not proceed with the mark. Whether any domain name similar to the shortlisted mark is already registered in the who.is database? If yes, then do not proceed with the mark. Whether any similar product or service similar to the shortlisted mark is offered by the company even though such names are not applied for registration? If yes, then do not proceed with the mark. The whole process may appear to be time consuming but it is worth the effort considering the value of trademarks and the legal tussle that may occur in case of any violations.

  • Registrability of Non-Conventional Trademarks: a Critical Analysis
    [ VOLUME 6 I ISSUE 1 I JAN.– MARCH 2019] E ISSN 2348 –1269, PRINT ISSN 2349-5138 Registrability of non-conventional trademarks: A critical analysis Dr. Mwirigi K. Charles* & T. Sowmya Krishnan** *Post-Doctoral Fellow, Christ (Deemed to be University), Bengaluru, 560029. **Scholar, Master of Law, Christ (Deemed to be University), Bengaluru, 560029. Received: January 10, 2019 Accepted: February 28, 2019 ABSTRACT: In the globalized age when international cross-border trade is taking place, marks have become a key tool to indicate an identity of the company. A good trade mark has its own picture, attaches distinctive personality to the goods and is a competitive essence. Modern marking law reflects some innovations in terms of "marking" itself. The' modern market' is in the process of inventing new products that have a typical smell, special touch and uniqueness of sound to offer the' modern customers ' more' sensory' consumer products. While these new trademarks have still not been widely accepted in every jurisdiction, the use of these brands in contemporary markets is common. Modern times are the result of certain legislative amendments or judicial interpretations, new forms of sensory trademarks have become accepted globally as intellectual property. Non-traditional trademarks continue to be a practice in the modem market and the case-law is evolving in this respect. Studies show, however, that the request for non-traditional marks to be registered in international trade from the owners is increasing. On the contrary, in examination, registration and enforcement of these marks, there are no uniform standards worldwide. Against this background, this paper contains a brief history, by various case studies, on registration and enforcement of non-traditional marks, the reason for their protection under legal regimes, prevalent in the US, European Union (EU) and India.

  • “Generic.Com” Trademarks May Be Registered If Consumers Do Not Perceive Them As Generic
    Latham & Watkins Intellectual Property Litigation Practice July 28, 2020 | Number 2782 Supreme Court: “Generic.com” Trademarks May Be Registered if Consumers Do Not Perceive Them as Generic The decision expands the availability of trademark protection for domain names and limits the number of terms deemed unprotectable because they are generic. Key Points: • The addition of the .com top-level domain to an otherwise generic term can transform the term into a potentially registrable trademark. • Consumer surveys will become even more essential in trademark litigation, as well as in the registration process. According to the US Supreme Court’s June 30, 2020, decision, a brand name can serve as a trademark only if the mark is capable of identifying a particular source of the good or service in question. Consequently, a generic term (e.g., book, computer) cannot qualify as a trademark because it is associated in the consuming public’s mind with an entire class of products or services.1 In U.S. Patent and Trademark Office v. Booking.com, the Supreme Court clarified the contours of this long-standing doctrine in trademark law by reaffirming the Lanham Act’s bedrock principle — whether a term is generic depends on its meaning to consumers.2 In doing so, the Supreme Court rejected a nearly per se rule that would have rendered “generic.com” terms ineligible for trademark registration.3 Background Booking.com is a digital travel company that provides hotel reservations and other services under the brand “Booking.com,” which is also the domain name

  • Article Title
    International In-house Counsel Journal Vol. 7, No. 25, Autumn 2013, 1 I Can Name that Brand in Three Notes: Non-Traditional Trademarks for Traditional Goods KATHRYN BELLEAU Assistant General Counsel - Intellectual Property and Procurement Legal, Pitney Bowes Inc., USA People are exposed to trademarks on a daily basis. Trademarks are a part of everyone’s everyday life. Trademarks are used on clothing, food, entertainment, cosmetics, etc. Unlike other aspects of law, there is no minimum educational requirement or level of sophistication to understand and/or recognize what a trademark is and how it relates to the goods and/or services with which it is used. Kids can readily recognize a brand from a young age, e.g., FISHER-PRICE toys. Teens recognize the well-known brands, e.g., COKE for soft drinks and NIKE for sports shoes. Along with these words that are used as trademarks, brand owners also use stylized lettering or designs. COCA-COLA uses stylized lettering for their soft drinks and Nike utilizes a Swoosh design on its sports shoes. These designs are also well recognized as trademarks by the general public. What people are less familiar with are the non-traditional marks that companies use to distinguish their goods and/or services from those of their competitors. One of the most common is the use of color. Other non-traditional types would be the non-functional shape of the goods or packaging for the goods; sound, usually in the form of musical notes; texture, the feel of a product or label therefor; finally, smell. All of these non- traditional trademarks need to be handled in a particular manner in order to ensure that rights are established and, once perfected, are not lost by misuse.
