Justice Tejas Karia, in an order dated December 1, determined that the defendants’ use of “VRS ALLCARGO” prima facie infringed upon Allcargo’s established and registered trademarks, unjustly attempting to benefit from the goodwill associated with the ALLCARGO brand. The Court noted that such usage is likely to confuse consumers and constitutes trademark infringement as well as passing off.
Concluding that Allcargo had established a prima facie case and that the balance of convenience favored the plaintiff, the Court ordered the defendants, along with their affiliates and agents, to immediately stop using the marks “VRS ALLCARGO” or any other trademark, trade name, or expression that is deceptively similar to ALLCARGO in relation to logistics services, Bar & Bench reported.

The Court additionally directed the domain name registrant to suspend and block the websites www.vrsallcargopackers.com, www.vrsallcargopackers.in, and www.vrsallcargo.in within 24 hours of receiving the order. The next hearing in this case is set for March 17, 2026.
Allcargo sought relief from the Court after VRS All Cargo Packers and Movers began providing logistics and relocation services under the names “VRS ALLCARGO” and similar variations, including online platforms. Allcargo, which has used this mark since the early 1990s and possesses several trademark registrations, contended that the defendants’ services overlapped with its own and were marketed through identical trade channels.
The Court noted that the defendants were unrepresented despite being served, and acknowledged that the disputed marks were “visually, phonetically, structurally, and deceptively similar” to Allcargo’s registered marks.
