Trademark Registration
A trademark is a unique symbol, logo, word, or phrase that distinguishes your goods or services from others in the market. Registering your trademark provides legal protection, exclusive rights, and helps build a strong brand identity.
Under the Trade Marks Act, 1999, trademark registration safeguards your brand against unauthorized use, infringement, and counterfeiting. It enhances customer trust, increases business value, and allows you to take legal action against counterfeiters.
The trademark registration process involves searching for existing trademarks to ensure uniqueness, filing the application, examination by the Trademark Office, and publication in the Trademark Journal. If there are no objections, the trademark is registered and valid for ten years, with the option for renewal.
Trademark Registration Process
-
Trademark Search: We conduct a comprehensive search to ensure your proposed trademark is unique and does not conflict with existing trademarks.
-
Application Filing: We prepare and file your trademark application with the Trademark Registry.
-
Examination: The trademark office examines your application for compliance and possible objections.
-
Publication: If approved, your trademark is published in the Trademark Journal for public opposition.

Registration: If no oppositions arise, or once they are resolved, your trademark is registered and valid for 10 years, with the option for renewal.
