Delhi High Court Grants Permanent Injunction Against Trademark Infringement of Ramada International
- Case Name: Ramada International, Inc. vs. Clubramada Hotels And Resorts Pvt. Ltd. & Anr.
- Judge(s): Justice Mini Pushakarna
The Delhi High Court issued a permanent injunction in favor of Ramada International against Clubramada Hotels for trademark infringement.
Ramada International stated that it has used the ‘RAMADA’ trademark since 1954 for its hotel in Arizona, USA. The defendant unlawfully included ‘Ramada’ in its company name.
In 2021, the court had issued an interim order restraining the defendant from using the ‘RAMADA’ mark. However, the defendant continued to use it.
Given this, the court issued a permanent injunction, awarded Rs. 10 lakh in damages, and ordered the plaintiff to submit its bill of costs within three months to claim actual lawsuit expenses.
