MakeMyTrip in Domain Name Dispute

Ezeego.com, a group company of Cox and Kings and a competitor of makemytrip in the online travel segment, initiated legal proceedings against makemytrip for booking similar domain name.

Ezeego.com has alleged MakeMyTrip registered domain names similar to its Ezeego1.com, in 2007-08.

According to reports, Ezeego1.com spent huge money in advertising for popularising its domain name. When MakeMyTrip registered deceptively similar domain names, they not only diverted Ezeego1.com’s user traffic but also gained undue advantage due to the popularity of the domain as a result of the advertising by the complainant.
