Supreme Court Allows Cognizant Technologies to Use Its Logo in India until Final Hearing

The Supreme Court has set aside a Bombay High Court order that restrained Cognizant from using its hexagonal logo in India. The apex court restored an earlier single-judge order that had permitted the company to continue using the logo.

The legal battle stems from a trademark case filed by Bengaluru-based Atyati Technologies Private Limited, which alleged that Cognizant's logo was deceptively similar to its own.

While allowing Cognizant to continue using its mark, the Supreme Court has directed the Bombay High Court to conduct an expedited hearing and resolve the trademark dispute within six months.
