Overview - ip litigation infringement cases legal services Registration
What is it?
IP litigation encompasses civil and criminal proceedings initiated by IP owners (or their licensees) against parties who are using their intellectual property without authorisation - including trademark infringement, patent infringement, copyright infringement, design infringement, and passing off. IP rights are enforced through civil courts, High Courts (for IP with commercial value above the district court pecuniary limit), and the IP Appellate Board.
Civil remedies for IP infringement
Permanent injunction (restraining further infringement), Delivery up and destruction of infringing goods, Damages (actual financial loss) or account of profits (infringer's profit from the infringement), Costs of litigation. For urgent situations: Ex-parte temporary injunction - obtainable on the first day of filing, immediately restraining the infringer without prior notice.
Criminal remedies
Trademark Act: Criminal prosecution of infringer - imprisonment up to 3 years + fine. Copyright Act: Criminal prosecution - imprisonment up to 3 years + fine. Customs seizure: Border control measures to seize infringing goods at the point of import. Police seizure raids: Coordinated with police and customs for large-scale infringement operations.
John Doe / Ashok Kumar orders
In copyright and trademark infringement cases involving unknown or multiple infringers (piracy websites, counterfeit markets), High Courts issue 'John Doe' orders - also called Ashok Kumar orders - restraining unnamed infringers from continued violation. These are powerful tools against online piracy and counterfeit networks.

- ✅ WHY DO YOU NEED THIS
- Key Benefit
- Explanation
- Key Benefit
- Explanation
- Ex-Parte Injunction Stops Infringement Immediately
- In urgent IP infringement cases, a court can grant an ex-parte temporary injunction on the first day of filing - immediately restraining the infringer from selling, manufacturing, or distributing the infringing products. This stops the damage while the main case is litigated.
- Damages + Account of Profits Are Both Available
- The IP owner can claim both actual damages (their financial loss from the infringement) and an account of profits (the infringer's profit from using the IP). In cases where the infringer's profit exceeds the IP owner's loss, account of profits is the more valuable remedy.
- Criminal Prosecution Creates Deterrence
- Criminal prosecution for trademark counterfeiting or copyright piracy - even if ultimately resolved through settlement - creates powerful deterrence. A single successful prosecution of a counterfeiter sends a market-wide signal.
- Customs Can Seize Infringing Imports at the Border
- The Intellectual Property Rights (Imported Goods) Enforcement Rules, 2007 allow IP owners to record their IP with Customs - enabling seizure of infringing goods at ports of entry before they reach the Indian market.
