Google is facing fresh criticism in India after the Delhi High Court held the company liable for trademark infringement in a major case involving sanitaryware brand Hindware. 

A few days after the judgment came out, Zoho founder Sridhar Vembu publicly backed Zerodha CEO Nithin Kamath and accused Google of following "completely unethical" practices through its advertising business.

"I am with Nithin on this. What Google was doing was completely unethical and I am glad it has been found illegal in India. They need to be held to account for these shady business practices," Vembu wrote on X.
