About Trademark
A clear overview, in simple terms — what it is, why it matters, and how we handle it.
A trademark is filed online with the Trade Marks Registry in Form TM-A. The government fee is ₹4,500 per class for individuals, startups and small enterprises and ₹9,000 for others. You can use ™ from filing; ® only after registration. The application is examined, objections must be answered within 30 days, it's advertised for four months of opposition, and registration lasts ten years, renewable.
Most refusals come from conflicts with existing marks or descriptive names, so a proper search before filing saves months. Choosing the right classes for your goods and services matters as much as the name.
We search the register, advise on distinctiveness and classes, file the application, reply to the examination report, and handle opposition and the final registration.
