US electric vehicle (EV) major Tesla Inc on Thursday moved the Delhi High Court alleging infringement of its trademark ‘Tesla’ by Gurugram-based Tesla Power India.
While seeking to restrain Tesla Power from using its trademark, senior counsel Chander Lall, appearing for Tesla Inc, argued that the local firms’s use of the trademark in India was not only causing confusion among consumers but also harming its business interests. He also submitted that complaints against Tesla Power batteries are being directed to the US firm as consumers are assuming that these are associated with Tesla Inc.
