Balance of convenience was also in the plaintiff\u2019s favour and against the defendants. Thus, the Court granted interim injunction in favour of Bima Sugam India Federation and restrained Defendant 1, all others acting on his behalf, from selling, offering for sale, advertising, directly or indirectly dealing in any manner with any goods or services using the mark \u2018BIMA SUGAM\u2019.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"ai-optimize-7\">Background<\/h3>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-8\" style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The plaintiff was a not-for-profit company incorporated under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001537751\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">8<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002766251\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Companies Act, 2013<\/a>. The plaintiff company was established pursuant to the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (Bima Sugam &#8211; Insurance Electronic Marketplace) Regulations, 2024 (\u2018Bima Sugam Regulations\u2019).<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-9\" style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">As per Regulation 4(a) of the Bima Sugam Regulations, the plaintiff was incorporated for the establishment of the \u2018Bima Sugam- Insurance Electronic Marketplace\u2019 (\u2018Bima Sugam Marketplace\u2019). The Bima Sugam Marketplace and the trade mark \u201cBIMA SUGAM\u201d were first conceived in or around August 2022 by the IRDAI and have since received extensive media coverage online as well as through conventional television and print media. The mark \u201cBIMA SUGAM\u201d, comprised of a unique combination of the Hindi-language dictionary words \u201cBIMA\u201d and \u201cSUGAM\u201d, which when translated to English mean \u201cinsurance\u201d and \u201caccessible\u201d respectively.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-10\" style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The plaintiff was set up with the objective of establishing, facilitating, developing, operating and maintaining the Bima Sugam Marketplace for providing various services to the insurance stakeholders, including Life Insurance Corporation of India, and other major private players. In April 2024, plaintiff had applied for the registration of trade mark \u2018BIMA SUGAM\u2019, which was still pending.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-11\" style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Defendant 1 acted as Insurance Agent, majorly for Life Insurance Corporation of India and was based in Bangalore. Defendant 1 had registered the domain names www.bimasugam.com and www.bimasugam.in in October 2022, soon after the Bima Sugam Marketplace was publicly announced by IRDAI in the month of August 2022. Defendant 1 hosted a website on the aforesaid domain names showcasing the services offered by him as an insurance agent.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-12\" style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Upon getting to know of the registration of domain name by Defendant 1, the plaintiff issued a legal notice claiming rights in the \u2018BIMA SUGAM\u2019 trade mark and calling upon Defendant 1 to cease and desist from using the aforesaid names. Subsequently, in February 2025, it came to the knowledge of the plaintiff that Defendant 1 had filed an application seeking registration of the mark \u2018BIMA SUGAM\u2019. The plaintiff immediately filed a protest letter with Defendant 3, seeking that the Trade Marks Registry refuses Defendant 1\u2019s trade mark application.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"ai-optimize-13\">Analysis, Law, and Decision<\/h3>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-14\" style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court stated that a prima facie case had been out on behalf of the plaintiff. Balance of convenience was also in the plaintiff\u2019s favour and against the defendants. The registration of the impugned domain names by Defendant 1 would be prejudicial to public interest as Defendant 1 was seeking to monopolize the mark, which was announced by the Insurance Regulator IRDAI for a specific purpose in public interest.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-15\" style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Consequently, till the next date of hearing, the Court restrained Defendant 1, his employees, partners, agents, associates, affiliates, trading concerns and all others acting on his behalf, from selling, offering for sale, advertising, directly or indirectly dealing in any manner with any goods or services using the mark \u201cBIMA SUGAM\u201d\/ or any other trade marks, containing the plaintiff\u2019s \u201cBIMA SUGAM\u201d marks and any other mark deceptively similar thereto either by itself, or in conjunction with any other mark, and\/or their variations, as a part of their domain names.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-16\" style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">Further, the Court directed <a href=\"http:\/\/GoDaddy.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GoDaddy.com<\/a> to lock and suspend the domain names www.bimasugam.com and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bimasugam.in\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.bimasugam.in<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-17\" style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The matter is next listed on 16-7-2025.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-18\" style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #632423;\">Bima Sugam India Federation v.
