Here anyone who knows trade mark issues clearly plz share with us... Should i register this name before starting my website?..

Thanks

This is part of a thread where Mitsu responded to my question and very relevant here, I think. If your website is NOT competing with Satyam and tries to leverage on their name, then you can have a case against trademark infringement. That is how I understand

From Mitsu"
A. Date of First use of trademark in commerce.
B. Date of Application for Trademark.
C. Date of Final Registration of Trademark (Certificate Date).

So please now detail your query again on above then we clarify.

Reply of your second example :

Same reply as of first example.

If Trademark owner gives sufficient proof that he was using Trademark term well before registration of domain name then he will get full point for Trademark (but donot forget in Trademark there are lot of other points are also considered like pictorial trademark , similarity between TM term and domains etc.)

But Trademark is not the only criteria to loose your domain name in case of dispute , TM owner requires to prove Bad Faith and Bad Usage of Domain name too ?

"

Perhaps you can raise this question with Mitsu as well.

Good Luck
