What is a trademark search and why is it important?

A trademark search checks the public IP India registry for existing brands, logos, or slogans that are identical or phonetically similar to yours. This helps avoid legal conflicts and application rejections.

How long is a registered trademark valid in India?

Once registered, a trademark is valid for 10 years from the date of application. It can be renewed indefinitely every 10 years by paying the renewal fee.

When can I start using the TM and R symbols?

You can start using the 'TM' symbol immediately after filing the application and receiving the application number receipt. You can only use the 'R' symbol once the registry officially approves and issues the registration certificate.

What if the government registry raises an objection?

Objections are common under Section 9 or 11. Our team will review the examination report and draft a professional response. Simple objection response drafting is included in our pro packages.

Our legal experts conduct a thorough search across the IP India trademark database covering all 45 classes and provide a detailed written opinion on the likelihood of successful registration. This saves you from wasted filing fees, legal disputes, and potential rejection by the Trademark Registry.
