Philips Loses 21-Year-Old Patent Case
Philips, a multinational digital tech company, has lost a two-decade legal battle before the Delhi High Court over patent infringement in the manufacture and sale of Video Compact Discs (VCDs).
The case, Koninklijke Philips NV v., was decided on October 13, with Justice Mini Pushkarna ruling that Philips failed to prove its patent in 'Digital Transmission System' had been infringed by a Delhi-based shop.
The Court found that the process adopted by Philips to compare its patented process with that of the Indian shop's CD products was fundamentally flawed.
The patent held by Philips concerned three elements: a transmitter, a receiver, and a transmission medium.
Author's summary: Philips loses 21-year patent case in India.
