Abstract
Domain name is meant to locate the web address on internet but in today’s era domain name has gone very far from the purpose of domain name. Now generally domain names are used to identify the goods and services which a particular manufacture, company and service provider is offering be it offline or online. As per prevalent practices registration of domain name being not as stringent as that of trade marks lead to the practice of cybersquatting. In plethora of judgments Courts have responded positively to have resolved the disputes applying the principles of trade mark and passing off laws. It automatically speaks that domain name and trade mark are different concepts but on the ground of unavailability of the law in pertain to domain name cyber squatters may not be allow to play with the laws. The paper covers lack of laws in India, history of cyber squatters, cyber squatters position in India and working of ICANN and ACPA.
