The Delhi High Court has issued permanent injunction in favour of Philip Morris Brands SARL, an American tobacco company, against trademark and copyright infringement of its cigarette packs. On 13 July, 2023, the Court had granted an ex parte ad interim injunction, restraining the defendants from dealing in any products bearing Philip Morris' trademarks. Comparing Philip Morris' products with the counterfeit products, the Court observed that the cigarette packs were identical in terms of colour combination and arrangement of letters, marks and figures. The Court thus issued a permanent injunction in favour of Philip Morris, restraining the defendants from dealing in any products bearing Philip Morris' trademarks, packaging or using the labels/artistic works.
