Chennai sources stated that the Madras high court has restrained M/s ABI and Company and eight other companies from infringing M/s Kaleesuwari Refinery's reputed and well known registered trade mark 'Gold Winner' by using the offending trade mark 'Gold Power' or any mark or word deceptively similar to its trade mark for any edible oil marketed by them.
Reportedly Justice S.Vaidyanathan granted the interim injunction on the suits filed by M/s Kaleesuwari Refinery Private Limited. Meanwhile so, some unscrupulous traders wanting to take illegal advantage and enrich themselves at the popularity and reputation of the plaintiff's trade mark Gold Winner and artistic work in the plaintiff's pouch, were now resorting to adopt the similar trademark and trading style along with the color combination used for the plaintiff's product.
Moreover Vijayan Subramanian Counsel for Plaintiff added the obvious intention of the unscrupulous traders was only to take advantage of the enormous popularity of the trademark and trading style Gold Winner and to enrich themselves at the well and hard earned reputation of the plaintiff.
