Service Overview

What is Trademark Registration?

A trademark is a registered intellectual property right that grants exclusive use of your brand name, logo or tagline in your industry category. Registration with IP India (CGPDTM) gives you nationwide statutory protection, the right to use the ® symbol, and legal grounds to take action against infringers.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

How long does trademark registration take in India?
The full process typically takes 18–36 months from application to certificate. However, your mark is protected from the date of filing even before registration.
Can I use ™ before my trademark is registered?
Yes. The ™ symbol can be used once an application is filed. The ® symbol can only be used after formal registration.
What if my mark gets an examination report?
We draft and file a professional response to examination reports as part of the service. Most objections are resolvable with a well-drafted response.
How many classes should I register in?
Each class covers a specific category of goods/services. We recommend registering in all classes relevant to your current and near-future business activities.
Can a competitor challenge my trademark?
Yes, during the 4-month publication window. We monitor and advise on any opposition filed against your mark.
