13 May 2011we have entered into a partnership deed as xyz Communication for
being franchisee partner of your esteemed "THE
ABC STORE". but when we go through obtaining the Sales tax registration
and Trade License, all the authorities asked for displaying the Name board
as XYZ Communication. but we would like to make the Name board as "THE
ABC STORE" . So please give the right choice how to approach the sales
tax department and other statutory authorities.

You can use "ABC" but not "ABC stores Ltd" as ABC is brand, but abc stores is an establishment.
you are franchise of ABC, and ABC has not opened their branch in your place.
just like airtel/vodaphone/idea/BSNL, you can show signboards and advt banners, but ar signboard your company name should displaty at prime place.

XYZ can advertise for ABC Stores on their shop display board subject to permission and payment of tax liablity (if any), but the shop would remain in name of XYZ Ltd, and there is no establishment of ABC in that place except that XYZ is an agency/ sole distributor of ABC

McDonalds has authorized franchise partners, and they "Display" McDonalds on their board, they dont establish Mcdonalds.
documents would always be in name of XYZ, its upto XYZ that what he want to display, provided there is no identity confussion for any department, and all tax/ legal responsibilities would go in hands of and catered by XYZ only.

XYZ communication is the authorised franchise of "ABC Store Ltd", and as per agreemetn the Sinage will be "ABC Store". So can I the Put the Name ABC Store on the name board.
In the Application /Registration Form As XYZ communication authorised presentative of ABC Store Ltd. and Trading in the name of "ABC Store".
Kindly Suggest

you are getting confused between name board and display hording
name board would contain XYZ and nothing
for display board u can use abc/def whatsoever u like, but u have to have proper documents for display of such board.

and they display "McDonalds" only which is brand logo, they dont display the official name of McDonalds
