Controversy over Bajaj’s CNG bike name ‘Freedom’, LML accused of stealing the brand; The case reached the High Court

Bajaj Auto created history by launching the country and the world’s first Freedom CNG motorcycle. This motorcycle is also popular among customers. Although it is not yet available to customers nationwide, its sales numbers are much better. Due to its high mileage, it overshadows many models. However, controversy began over its name. In fact, a legal battle has started between LML’s parent company SG Corporate and Bajaj Auto over the name of this motorcycle. SG Corporate has taken Bajaj Auto to court in this matter.

After all, what does the name “Liberty” mean?

>> LML’s parent company SG Corporate Mobility Pvt Ltd has filed a complaint in the Delhi High Court, accusing Bajaj Auto of unauthorized use of the ‘Freedom’ trademark. SG Corporate Mobility claims that Bajaj’s use of the name ‘Freedom’ infringes its rights to the trademark, which was originally used by LML for its popular ‘Freedom’ motorcycle launched in 2002. LML Freedom was popular for its strength and performance.
