Schering Corporation & Ors. vs Alkem Laboratories Ltd. on 1 December, 2009

In our opinion, the judgment and the ratio laid down in Schering Corporation v. Alkem Laboratories Ltd. (supra), squarely applies to the facts of the present case.

The mark, ‗LETROZ', is not similar to the trademark ‗LETERO' merely because both the parties have adopted the initial letters (SUN adopted the first six and HETERO adopted the first three) of the INN ‗LETROZOLE'. It is apparent that both SUN and HETERO are using their marks, which are derived from the INN ‗LETROZOLE', which is descriptive of the active ingredient of the drug, that is, ‗LETROZOLE'.

According to Dr. Singhvi, where marks are not identical, the test of deceptive similarity in case of infringement would be the same as those employed while testing a passing-off action. Reliance in this respect was placed upon the decision in M/s Gufic Ltd. & Anr. vs Clinique Laboratories LLC & Anr.17 and to the following passage as appearing therein:
