A website post about recent trends in trademark damages in India, covering punitive awards, notional damages, and digital injunctions for brand owners in 2026.

The trademark landscape in India is changing the way people see a trademark. In past years, there were very few damages awarded to a party in an infringement case, and courts took a long time to enforce those awards. Courts in India are changing their views on how to provide compensation to a business that has been harmed by an infringement or passing off of its trademark and will make this determination quickly. All businesses that have invested time and money into either obtaining a trademark registration in India or protecting their trademarks through other means will have to keep up with this shift in judicial thinking in order to develop a sound IP strategy.
