You may not use the Coronel trademark


-Baba Ramdev slapped by Madras High Court

-The Chennai-based company had approached the High Court

Chennai, July 18, 2020, Saturday

Baba Ramdev's Patanjali Institute was slapped by the Madras High Court over an Ayurvedic medicine. The High Court had imposed an interim ban on the use of the name Coronil as an ayurvedic medicine for the treatment of corona.

A few days ago Baba Ramdev claimed that we had discovered such a drug as Corona Matade and that the drug was named Baba Ramdev Coronil.

It was submitted in the High Court by Arudra Engineering, a Chennai-based company, that as far back as 1993, we registered Coronil-213 and Coronil-92B for our drugs and as per the rules, we renew these names. Hence the name Coronil is our registered trademark. No one may use the Coronel name without our permission. Baba Ramdev's company infringed copyright using our registered name.

The company manufactures chemicals and sanitizers for cleaning heavy machinery, container units and containers. The company told the High Court that by 2027 both these names are our registered trademarks and our customers in the country and abroad buy our products under this name.

In support of this, the company has billed products it has sold in the last five years.

The High Court had sent a notice to Patanjali urging him to reply. Patanjali was urged not to use the name till the next hearing, i.e. till July 31.

It may be recalled that Patanjali was also urged by the Union Ministry of AYUSH that you cannot claim that this medicine is for the treatment of corona, you can sell this product as a medicine to boost immunity.
