Your trade mark can be a valuable business asset. Trade marks have come to represent not only actual goods and services, but also the reputation of the business. Normally a Trademark indicates to your logo or brand, which is distinctive from your competitors. A trademark can be a word, letter, number, phrase, symbol, shape or combination thereof.

For registering a trademark in India, you are required to follow a thorough process through the Controller General of Patents, Designs & Trademarks. The process of trademark registration consists of several steps that need to be followed. Here’s how it works:
Before applying for trademark registration, it’s important to conduct a trademark search on the IP India website to ensure that your brand name/logo is not already registered or similar to any existing mark.
Trademarks are categorized into 45 classes based on the nature of goods/services. Choose the correct class(es) relevant to your business.
Submit identity/address proof, logo (if any), nature of business, and Form TM-48 (if applying through an agent).
For companies, the applicant needs to submit a Certificate of Incorporation and other relevant details.
File online through IP India Trademark Portal or with the help of a trademark attorney. Pay the applicable government fee (₹4,500 for individual/startup/MSME; ₹9,000 for others per class).
The Trademark Registry examines the application and may raise objections if it finds similarities or procedural issues. If objected, a response or hearing may be required.
If there is no objection or opposition, the mark is published in the Trademark Journal for public viewing.
If no opposition arises within 4 months of publication, your trademark is registered, and you will receive a Registration Certificate valid for 10 years (renewable).
In conclusion, trademark registration procedure involves several legal formalities to safeguard your brand identity and give you exclusive rights to use it. Consult a trademark expert such as Setindiabiz for a hassle-free trademark registration process.
