The Bombay High Court has questioned the claim to right over using generic terms after domestic carrier GoAir and IndiGo have been involved in a legal dispute. GoAir had alleged ‘similarity’ in domain names used by rival carrier IndiGo airlines.
In 2014, GoAir had filed a lawsuit against InterGlobe Aviation Ltd (which manages IndiGo airlines). It had asked the Bombay High Court to direct the rival carrier to remove “Go” from its web address “GoIndigo.in”. The Wadia-group airlines claimed that the similarity in the portal domain of both the carriers was causing confusion in passengers, who wanted to book air tickets online.
It also claimed that passengers were getting diverted to Indigo’s website, which led to revenue loss to GoAir. Dion Jordan Womens Jersey
