Tesla ko Delaware, United States mein shamil kiya gaya hai aur yeh Indian company ko “Tesla Power” aur “Tesla Power USA” trade names ka istemal karne ka ilzaam lagata hai.

Elon Musk ke electric vehicle (EV) banane wali company Tesla Inc ne Tesla Power India Ltd ke khilaaf ek trademark anushanshan mamla darj kiya, jismein Bharat mein Tesla ki entry ke charche chal rahe the, ek Delhi High Court ke dastavez ne shukravaar ko dikhaya.

Tesla ko Delaware, United States mein shamil kiya gaya hai aur yeh Bharatiya company ko “Tesla Power” aur “Tesla Power USA” trade names ka istemal karne ka ilzaam lagati hai.

Apni suraksha mein, Tesla Power ne adalat ko kaha ki unka koi bhi iraada nahi hai EVs ka utpaadan karna “kabhi bhi” aur unke trademark aur tradename ‘Tesla Power USA’ ya kisi aur brand ke dwara unke EVs ko bhi market nahi karenge, jo kisi bhi tareeke se dhokhebazi mein milta ho ya shabd ‘Tesla’ ka istemal karenge.

Gadi banane wali company ne adalat ko bataya ki unhone 2022 mein pata lagaya ki Bharatiya company unka brand name istemal kar rahi thi aur isse rokne ki koshish ki, jiske kaaran unhein lawsuit file karna pada.

“…18 April 2022 ko defendant (Tesla Power) ko ek cease-and-desist notice bheja gaya tha…kunki defendents ne apne samaan ko advertise aur market karna jari rakha, isliye vartaman suit file kiya gaya,” Tesla Inc ne adalat ko bataya court record ke anusaar. Delhi High Court ke judge ne Bharatiya firm ko unke suraksha ke liye ek set documents submit karne ke baad likhit jawaab deni ke liye teen hafton ki chhoot di, court record dikhata hai. Mamle ki agli sunwai 22 May ke liye tay ki gayi hai.

Mamla iske baad aata hai jab Musk ne 21 April ko Pradhan Mantri Narendra Modi se milne ke liye intezaar ki gayi yatra ko radd kar diya. Ek hafta baad, Musk ne ek aage badhe driver assistance package ke liye China mein ek surprise yatra ki.

Ek Tesla Power pratinidhi ko quote karte hue, Reuters ne report kiya ki woh Tesla se pehle se hi Bharat mein maujood tha aur unke paas sarkari anumatiyan bhi thi.

EV kshetra mein nivesh ko akarshit karne ke liye, Kendra ne bijli se chalne wali car ke mdoels ke liye import tax ko 100 feesad se kam karke 15 feesad kar diya hai, jo 5 saal tak $35,000 ya usse zyada ke milansar moolya, bima, aur cargo ke daamo ke liye lagu hota hai, yeh Tesla ke pravesh ke liye ek mukhya shart hai taki “Bharat mein bazar ki sambhavana” ko test kiya ja sake.
