THE year in which an amending Trade Marks Bill is passing through Parliament in England is singularly appropriate for the appearance of a book on trade marks in India. The book is not only in itself an excellent and comprehensive guide to English trade mark law, but is also a most powerful argument for the trade mark legislation in India that its author desires. The position to-day in India is very much the same as it was in England before 1875 ; the owner of a trade mark can only attempt to protect his rights by a cumbrous passing-off action or by invoking the Indian Merchandise Marks Act, under which the onus is on him to prove his entitlement, and a successful action can give him neither damages nor an injunction.
