Justice Mini Pushkarna of the Delhi High Court granted interim relief to Rupa Gujral, restraining defendants from using the ‘MOTI MAHAL’ trademark amid ongoing arbitration related to a partnership deed. The court determined the defendants falsely claimed association with the brand. The plaintiffs assert their exclusive rights to the trademark and associated goodwill.
