Blackberry files for INDRP over Blackberryservice.in !
Blackberry has been one of the undisputed leader in Mobile Technology and related services and owner of various Trademarks in India as well. And no doubt the registered Domain Name is confusingly similar to the registered Trademark of the Complainant.
Though website has been put to legitimate use but in such cases, the Complainant has an advantage as the Respondent has no licence/authorization to use the registered Trademark, therefore is not any bonafide offering of good/services and use being made is commercial use, as Respondent is offering Blackberry repair services. And Bad Faith is also presumed in such circumstances !
It’s like a prima-facie case, that can even fall under URS, but .IN Registry has not yet opted for the Uniform Rapid Suspension system!
