The following two INDRP decisions involve well-known trademarks, and the disputed domains were registered after the complainant obtained its trademark in India.
Neither respondent submitted a response.
(1) Yamaha.co.in
Yamaha owns the very well-known mark YAMAHA. Yamaha sent a number of notices via registered post and courier to the respondent, however these were returned "address not traceable" (sounds like the registrant give a fake address). Yamaha also sent correspondence via email but received no response. INDRP proceedings were commenced and Yamaha won the domain
(2) Intesa.in
The banking group Intesa Sanpaolo S.p.A owns the mark INTESA. It is a well-known trademark registered in over 25 countries including India.
A few months after obtaining the domain, the respondent tried to sell it to Intesa for a "substantial price." Intesa refused to accept this offer and commenced INDRP proceedings. Intesa won the domain.
