End-to-end trademark and patent filing handled by IP specialists — from first application to registry hearings, with nationwide legal validity.
A trademark identifies the source of your goods or services through a name, logo, slogan or combination of these. In India, registration under the Trade Marks Act, 1999 gives the owner an exclusive, nationwide right to use the mark for the registered goods or services and the ability to sue for infringement. Unregistered marks get only limited protection through passing-off, which is harder and slower to enforce.
Registration is valid for ten years from the date of application and can be renewed for further ten-year periods.
TM can be used once you have claimed a mark, including after you file an application. The (R) symbol can be used only after the mark is formally registered.
The registry process involves several stages and often takes many months, longer if there are objections or oppositions. We keep you updated at each stage.
An objection is a request for clarification, not a rejection. A well-reasoned reply, and sometimes a hearing, can resolve it, and our team prepares the response.
