The Taste Of India Prevails In Canada

INTRODUCTION

The case of Kaira District Co-operative Milk Producers' Union Limited ("Kaira") and Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation Ltd. ("Gujarat") v. Amul Canada, Mohit Rana, Akash Ghosh, Chandu Das, and Patel is the first-ever victory seen by AMUL on the foreign soil. One of India's prominent dairy giants – AMUL had to take a rough road with a Canadian company called Amul Canada ("defendants"). The Federal Court of Canada dealt with the case of trademark and copyright infringement. Kaira and Gujarat ("plaintiffs") filed a statement of claim which alleged the defendants of infringing the trademark and copyright of the plaintiffs' brand by way of using their brand name, image, and corporate information in Canada.
