Trademark infringement occurs when someone is using an identical or confusingly similar mark with respect to the same goods, products, services etc, or has applied for registration of such a mark. If a mark is similar in writing, shape, pronunciation etc, to such an extent that confuses or misleads ordinary consumers (who lack particular knowledge), it is considered confusingly similar.

 In case of trademark infringement, the owner may sue the infringer(s). There are two possible remedies available to a successful plaintiff in an infringement action:

1-        An injunction against further infringements or annulment of their application/certificate.

2-        Monetary damages (including loss of profit).
