Yulu sues Kinetic Green over trademark infringement

Yulu filed the lawsuit in January after Kinetic Green launched its new Zulu range of electric scooters.

Yulu Bikes has filed a case against Kinetic Green, accusing the latter of infringing its trademark. The lawsuit has been filed at a city civil and sessions court in Bangalore.

According to media reports, Yulu filed the lawsuit in January after Kinetic Green launched its new Zulu range of electric scooters. The company believes that it sounds too similar to its own brand and may cause confusion among customers.

Meanwhile, the Karnataka High Court reportedly ordered a temporary injunction on February 5, 2024. The court has restrained Kinetic Green Energy from using, selling and advertising with ‘YULU’ and associated trademarks or similar words, including ‘ZULU’ and ‘Kinetic Green Zulu’.

In response, Kinetic Green’s lawyers have requested the High Court to advance the date and allow them to file their objections sooner. The final decision on the interim application is expected to be made by the Commercial Court by March 11, 2024.
