Dabur Ayurvedic
Natural Health Care Products India
has filed a case against Amar
Remedies, for
infringing on the intellectual property rights (IPR) to its brand Meswak. Dabur
in the has alleged that Amar Remedies manufactures a toothpaste under the brand
name Siwak and exports it to Algeria.
Along with IPR infringement, Dabur in the suit has also alleged that Amar Remedies has attempted to "pass off" Siwak as Meswak. Passing-off in IPR law means making a false representation that is likely to induce a person to believe that the goods or services are those of another.
In the petition Dabur has alleged that Amar has dishonestly adopted the the said mark Siwak on the toothpaste only with a view to trade on its goodwill and reputation
