Trademark Insights - Registry & Judicial Updates – 03 April 2026

Adoption of Personal Name ≠ Trademark Rights

The Hon'ble Court clarified that mere adoption of a personal/family name does not grant trademark rights, especially when identical registered marks with prior goodwill exist.

Case: In the "Bejan Daruwalla" dispute, the defendant was restrained despite claiming adoption into the family.

Takeaway: Trademark rights arise from registration + goodwill, not lineage or personal identity.
