Section 56--Power to cancel or vary registration and to rectify the register--(1 | Statute | Analyze the sentence and predict in which semantic role does this come under in Indian legal context |
On application made in the prescribed manner to a High Court or to the Registrar by any person aggrieved,the tribunal may make such order as it may think fit for cancelling or varying the registration of a trade mark on the ground of any contravention,or failure to observe a condition entered on the register in relation thereto | Statute | Analyze the sentence and predict in which semantic role does this come under in Indian legal context |

For the purpose of appreciation of the rival contentions,we may notice the findings of the Board as also the High Court | Facts | Analyze the sentence and predict in which semantic role does this come under in Indian legal context |
The Board has taken the view that the period of five years and one month will begin to run from the date on which Thukral became the proprietor of the trademark,that is,30th May,1986 and,therefore,the rectification application could have been filed by the appellant only sometime in 1991.Opining that an application for rectification against the appellant within a period of seven and a half months from the date of assignment of the trade mark was not maintainable,the application was dismissed | Facts | Analyze the sentence and predict in which semantic role does this come under in Indian legal context |
The High Court on the other hand opined: "It was not anybody's case before us that M/s Jain Industries | Facts | Analyze the sentence and predict in which semantic role does this come under in Indian legal context |
the registered proprietor of the trademark used it at all | Facts | Analyze the sentence and predict in which semantic role does this come under in Indian legal context |
The trademark was used by the Appellant and Thukral,neither of whom were proprietors thereof,except that Thukral claims to have become its proprietor with effect from 30th May,1986.According to learned counsel for the Appellant,the use of the trademark by Thukral was not legally permissible use inasmuch as Thukral did not have the consent,tacit or otherwise of M/s | Facts | Analyze the sentence and predict in which semantic role does this come under in Indian legal context |
Jain Industries to use the trademark | Facts | Analyze the sentence and predict in which semantic role does this come under in Indian legal context |
If Thukral did,then it cannot be said that there was no bona fide use thereof by its proprietor | Facts | Analyze the sentence and predict in which semantic role does this come under in Indian legal context |
that is,M/s Jain Industries | Facts | Analyze the sentence and predict in which semantic role does this come under in Indian legal context |
This appears to be the position at least till 30th May,1986.In | Facts | Analyze the sentence and predict in which semantic role does this come under in Indian legal context |
