My card was taken by an ATM near my hotel in India. Has this happened to anyone else? Solution?
not very common. if they don't accept, they spit out the card. but be careful, you have no more than 5 to 10 secs to take it back quickly otherwise it might get sucked back into the machine - that's what happened to my at a Bank of India ATM. i was quick!!!
a lot of atm machines in India are modern they've stopped taking the card inside entirely so if you have the option where you can see the card, use that. on my 6 month trip there, no atm ever took my card.

same thing happened to me but it was a standalone atm so dint have much help, there was a helpline number on it i tried calling that number but it was a longish process. thankfully i had another card so i let this one go.
Always use an atm inside a bank branch, SBI branch guys were able to get it back for me the next day.
Machine maintenance at ICICI is not great-sometimes cash gets stuck or the screen is buggy.
