What is Trademark
Infringement?
For example, the bitten apple logo is the registered trademark of the
company, Apple. When another company uses a similar logo on their
products and service, it is considered trademark infringement. Either be
used on the same type of products (electronics) or even on di!erent ones
like clothing. Then also, it would be an infringement if it confuse the public,
and they might consider purchasing the cloth under the impression of
being sold out by Apple.
There is strict punishment for those infringers under the law. But before
that, we should know about the types of infringement in India. Trademark
infringement can be done in two ways. Let's discuss it.

Section 29 of the Trademark Act, 1999 lays down the law related to direct
infringement of the trademark. As per the law, direct infringement has
been defined as in the following cases:
iii. Use of a similar trademark in the same class: For the infringement
of the trademark, the unauthorized use of the mark has to be used for
the propagation of goods or services that fall under the same class of
the registered trademark.
2. Indirect Infringement
i. Vicarious Infringement: When a person can control the actions of a
direct infringer to infringe, then it is said to be vicarious infringement.
Remedy: In this case, you can file a suit for trademark infringement in
the district court. The process for filing such a suit will be discussed in
detail later on in the topic.
Remedy: In case someone tries to register it, then you can file
Trademark Opposition against it. If neither you nor the party tries to
register it, you should first apply for its registration and then file a suit
against the other party (infringer).
{Note: The infringer will also be accountable for punishment in case the
trademark they use is not yet registered.}
{Note: Always remember that before proceeding with the suit, send notice
to the infringer and if no response is received from their end then only
initiate the proceedings in the court.}
If the trademark is being used for any fair purpose other than that for
commercial, it also doesn't count as trademark infringement. Fair use
includes news, commentary, criticism, parody, a comparative
advertisement with others, and non-commercial use.
