This is what IT Depot said:
Hi Roshan
I have read some of your articles on your blog and have heard about you through the tech enclave channel. There was this matter brought up to me regarding the cooler master cabinet for which we had mentioned as "no warranty" and you had mentioned that it has two years warranty. Our team had checked and then they came up to me stating that the distributor is saying that there is no warranty I had told them to double check. Now they have come back and said that it does not have any warranty.
We were distributing ANTEC Chassis before we used to give warranty on the Fans that came with the Chassis. I am assuming that the distributor will have the same policy. I will double check and update. The cabinet by itself I do not think has a warranty. I mean if a front panel breaks I do not think it is covered in warranty.
Please let me know if you have any interesting news or reviews to share we will update a link on our facebook page.
Thank You
Warm regards

Edit 1: So.. apparently IT Depot sent a letter to the distributor and distributor sent the mail to CM India. Its cleared now and I think IT depot (and hopefully dealers/online dealers will clarify). CM Called and confirmed the below:
The warranty is of 2 years. 2 years specifically for electric part of the case. CM also said that in the case of rusting in front panels on same cases, they have dealt with it on case to case basis. I think some of it was solved in TE's CM section.
