M/S Dabur India Ltd. vs M/S Alka Ayurvedic Pvt. Ltd. on 6 October, 2009
In Dabur v.
Alka (supra), this Court also observed that Section 28(3) of the Act does not
prohibit a suit for infringement if the mark of the Defendant is also
registered. Section 28(1), by a plain reading, vests in the registered
proprietor of the trademark, the exclusive right to use the mark in any
manner provided by the Act. Thus, the exclusive right vested in the
registered proprietor is subject to the other provisions of the Act and to the
registration being valid. As a corollary, if there is another provision in the
Act not vesting such an exclusive right in the registered proprietor or if the
registration is invalid, such exclusive right would not vest in the registered
proprietor of the mark. It was further observed that the words 'the exclusive
right to the use of any of those trademarks' in Section 28(3) would have to
take colour from the exclusive right conferred under Section 28(1) which
would not accrue if the registration is invalid.

The Singer Company Limited & Anr vs M/S Chetan Machine Tools And Ors on 26 February, 2009
In Singer Company Limited (Supra), Plaintiffs filed a suit alleging
infringement against the Defendants, who in response filed an application
under Order VII Rule 11 CPC, seeking rejection of the plaint. One of the
grounds raised by the Defendants was that no suit for infringement is
maintainable against the Defendants in view of Section 30(2)(e) of the Act.
Examining the provisions of Section 124 of the Act, Court was of the prima
facie view that the plaint could not be rejected at the threshold and the suit
can lie though it may have to be stayed depending upon the defence raised
by the Defendants.
