New Delhi FMCG major Dabur, which owns the 'Hajmola' brand of digestive tablets, is unable to digest another pill by almost the same name -- 'Pachmola'.

In a petition in the Delhi High Court, Dabur has alleged infringement of its 'Hajmola' trademark by Alka's 'Pachmola'.

Dabur's petition challenging an order of the single judge of the High Court is now before a division bench comprising Justices Mukul Mudgal and Reva Khetrapal which has issued notices to Alka Ayurvedic and directed it to file a reply.

Dabur also requested the division bench to stay the order passed by the single member bench of the court, which had in October this year rejected its plea and allowed Alka Ayurvedic to market and manufacture 'Pachmola' in the present form on an interim basis.

It had also directed Alka Ayurvedic to maintain accounts of sales of its digestive tablet and file it before the court.

The court had also observed that 'Mola' word is quite common and is extensively used by various manufacturers of ayurvedic, digestive tablets and churan.

Products such as Satmola, Sidmola, Chatmola and Swadmola were already in the market.
