The dominancy test focuses on 'the similarity of the prevalent or dominant features of the
competing trademarks that might cause confusion, mistake, and deception in the mind of the
purchasing public. Duplication or imitation is not necessary; neither is it required that the mark
sought to be registered suggests an effort to imitate. Given more consideration are the aural
and visual impressions created by the marks on the buyers of goods, giving little weight to
factors like prices, quality, sales outlets, and market segments. Dominancy test generally
favours established international brands .
