Domain names have assumed great importance in making an
impression upon users, customers and those wishing to gain access
in the virtual world. Due to certain underlying similarities in the
impact that trademarks and domain names have upon sales, marketing
and consumers, the law of trademarks is often extrapolated onto
domain name disputes. Elucidating another such instance is the suit
Super Cassettes Industries Ltd. v. Wang Zhi Zhu Ce Yong HU and Ors
2009 (39) PTC 162 (Del.) which came forth the High Court of
Delhi.
Praying for the grant of a permanent injunction, Super Cassettes
Industries Ltd. moved to court to institute an action against the
use of the domain name Supercassettes.com by Wang Zhi Zhu Yong HU
and Others. The suit also prayed to pass an order to prevent the
use of the trademark/ trade name Supercassettes or any other
deceptively similar name. Vide an earlier ex parte order, Yong HU
had been restrained from the use of the domain name or the trade
mark
