✨ Another Milestone Judgment | Trademark Victory for “CARNATIC CAFÉ” ✨
We are pleased to share that the Delhi District Court has upheld the trademark rights of “Carnatic Café”, restraining a Bengaluru-based firm from using the mark “Carnatic” for restaurant services — recognizing the brand’s distinct identity and goodwill built over years.
This judgment reinforces the principle that intellectual property is not merely a legal right, but a recognition of years of originality, consistency, and customer trust.
👏 Kudos to our Litigation Team at SNS ADVOCATES, led by Adv. Dushyant K Mahant and Adv Neeraj Sharma for their tireless efforts, strategic advocacy, and commitment to protecting client’s brand legacy.
This victory strengthens the jurisprudence around trademark protection and brand distinctiveness in the F&B sector.
