Delhi High Court Grants Ex-Parte Interim Injunction to Arjan Dugal Against Trade Dress Infringement

The Delhi High Court has granted an ex parte interim injunction restraining entities from infringing fashion designer Arjan Dugal’s clothing label, including unauthorised use of his brand name, designs, or trademarks.

The court noted the potential for irreparable harm to Dugal’s reputation and business, emphasising the need to protect intellectual property rights in the creative industry and ensured immediate relief pending a full trial.

The Court ordered the Defendant to remove infringing content from their website and social media pages, and appointed a Local Commissioner to seize infringing stock, catalogues, and promotional material, secure the confidential client database, and inventory the stock and accounts related to infringing sales.
