Sony’s trademark dispute in India has now been resolved.
Believed to be one of the reasons for the delay in the launch of PS5 in India, Sony had been in a trademark dispute with a man from Delhi.
A man named Hitesh Aswani from Delhi had filed for the PS5 trademark in India last year, according to a report by The Mako Reactor. While Sony had filed for the trademark in February this year.
Aswani has now withdrawn his application, first reported by Detective Gaming. The details are also available on the Government of India’s Public Search of Trade Marks website. Aswani’s PS5 trademark application had been filed under application number 4332863.
Sony had opposed Aswani’s filing under the Trade Marks Act of 1999, according to the order included in the report.
Sony Interactive Media is moving to register their PS5 trademark as early as possible, according to the report.
