Daimler Benz Aktiegesellschaft And ... vs Hybo Hindustan on 10 November, 1993
7. Though the appellant and the second respondent are engaged themselves in different goods, it has become necessary in the recent days that one has to safeguard his own mark not only to prevent any confusion or deception, but also their reputation. It is unnecessary for us to add the precedents by giving a list of cases except mentioning the case Daimler Benz Aktiegesellschaft and Anr. v. Hybo Hindustan, popularly known as Benz case, where the use of the name of Benz which is associated with the automobile cars of the plaintiff was prevented in respect of the use for under garments.
