Delhi High Court Rejects Google’s Safe Harbour Shield in Trademark Case

  • The Delhi High Court ruled Google can’t use safe harbour protection under Section 79 of the IT Act as a shield against trademark infringement charges filed in relation to its Ad Programme.
  • The case was brought by DRS Pvt Ltd and Agarwal Packers and Movers who alleged their trademarks were misused, leading customers to third-party services.
  • The court affirmed there’s no issue with Google using trademarks as keywords if there’s no confusion about the links or ads not being associated with the trademark.
