HC accepts Mahindra undertaking on '6E' trademark
Hindustan Times Jammu|December 10, 2024
NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court on Monday recorded an undertaking from Mahindra Electric Automobile Ltd, agreeing not to use the "6E" trademark for its upcoming electric car model, the BE 6, during the pendency of a trademark infringement lawsuit filed by InterGlobe Aviation Ltd, the operator of India's largest airline IndiGo.

HC accepts Mahindra undertaking on '6E' trademark

Mahindra committed to rebranding the model from BE 6E to BE 6 but signaled its intent to contest IndiGo's claims in court. In turn, IndiGo informed the court it would not pursue an interim injunction against the automaker.

After accepting the undertaking, the court disposed of IndiGo's plea for interim relief, issued summons to Mahindra, and scheduled the matter for April 2025.

The lawsuit, filed on 4 December, asserts that IndiGo's "6E" trademark is not merely a call sign but a cornerstone of its branding. Representing passenger-focused services such as 6E Prime, 6E Flex, and premium add-ons like lounge access and extra baggage allowances, the airline argues that "6E" is integral to its identity and protected under trademark law. IndiGo has sought an injunction to prevent Mahindra from using the designation.
