The Delhi High Court has ordered Southern Infoconsultants Limited (formerly 'Southern Infosys Limited') to stop using or displaying its old name in any form, including on goods, services, promotional material, and online or physical media. The company must now display only its new name 'Southern Infoconsultants Limited' everywhere. This follows an earlier judgment dated 27 May 2024 where the court had injuncted the old name as being too similar to Infosys Limited. The company says it does not expect any material impact and is taking steps to protect its interests. The matter is next listed on 11 December 2025, with Infosys willing to settle for a permanent injunction if Southern complies fully.
This is an ongoing trademark loss for the company, reinforcing that it must fully move away from its old identity linked to 'Infosys.' The company claims no material financial impact, but the rebranding could affect brand recognition and marketing. The stock may see limited reaction since the order formalises a name change that was already underway.
