Rectification of name of a company

Hello,

The corporate name of a company is similar to a registered trademark. Can owner of the registered trademark file an application with Regional Director / ROC for rectification of name of that company under Section 16(1)(b) of Companies Act, 2013 ? Does the RD / ROC direct that company to change its name ? Information on any such precedents would be welcome.

Thanks in advance
