AI J-class fare cheaper than Y-class fare!!

I was planning a trip to Delhi on AI's new JFK-DEL service, and did a search on Orbitz for a departure date of : Apr 17 and return on Apr 22 (NYC-DEL on AI102 and DEL-NYC on AI101). The search pulls up a fare of $6,123 for a coach-class round-trip ticket, Business class on the same flights is available for $5,036 round-trip. So, one will save $1087 traveling business on AI instead of coach. Guess AI would be the first airline to price its coach class tickets higher than its business class tickets, wonder if any other airlines have tried this strategy before...
