Messe Berlin GmbH has been prohibited from using the confidential information, shared with it by Fairfest Media Ltd., elaborately mentioned in the award. While Messe Berlin GmbH has been allowed to conduct its shows in India.
Award mandates that it is permanently restrained from using the confidential information shared with it by Fairfest Media Ltd. for conducting/organising such competing travel trade fairs.
Therefore, Fairfest Media Ltd. is bound to enforce the Award issued in its favor. It intends to take all necessary steps available under the law, to ensure that its confidential information is not misused by the Messe Berlin GmbH in organizing ITB India.
