I've seen this happen for the past 2-3 weeks. I don't have enough United miles to make a dummy booking, and also don't want to transfer miles in case this is an error, but is this a well known situation or is it simply a glitch?
I'd say it's a glitch. I expect that inventory would disappear if you tried to book it. (I assume you know that you'd need an India-based form of payment to book something via the India site -- if you use a US-based credit card, it will switch back to the US site anyway). LX (Swiss) is known for zeroing out F awards for all partners.
