The Delhi High Court has ordered the blocking of a website accused of selling ‘first copy’ of popular footwear brands like Nike, New Balance, Adidas, and Louis Vuitton at highly discounted prices.
In an order, Justice Navin Chawla also sought details and KYC documents of three mobile numbers through which the website ‘www.myshoeshop.in’ was allegedly offering the goods.
The court also ordered the suspension of the Instagram page of the website and asked for details of its owner.
The order was passed on a commercial suit filed by US-based manufacturer, New Balance Athletics Inc, who accused ‘Ashok Kumar Trading’ of selling counterfeits of its footwear and also that of other well-known brands.
The court said that New Balance has made out a prima facie case for grant of an injunction and the balance of convenience also lies in its favor.
It added that an irreparable loss would be caused to the plaintiff and consumers if the defendant is not restrained from continuing with their web portal.
The court had ordered the defendant to file a written statement within 30 days. The case is set for hearing on November 9.
