Belagavi Court Refuses Injunction Against Anthropic PBC in Trademark Suit

Belagavi Court Refuses Injunction Against Anthropic PBC in Trademark Suit

A Belagavi commercial court recently refused to grant an ex parte injunction to Karnataka-based Anthropic Softwares in its trademark dispute against US AI company Anthropic PBC over the mark “ANTHROPIC.”

The Indian company alleged passing off and infringement, citing reports of the US firm’s planned Bengaluru operations, and sought to restrain its use of the mark.

Judge Manjunath Nayak noted no evidence of the defendant operating in India or imminent infringement, issued notice and summons, and listed the matter for February 16.

Parallel proceedings before the Trade Marks Registry challenge the US mark for bad faith and likelihood of confusion.
