Trademark registration protects your brand name, logo, tagline, or combination from being used by competitors. A registered trademark gives you the exclusive right to use the mark in connection with your goods/services and enables you to take legal action against infringers across India.

The registration process involves filing a TM-A application with IP India, examination by the Trademark Registry, publication in the Trademark Journal for public opposition (4 months), and final registration certificate issuance. The entire process typically takes 18–24 months, though a registration certificate is issued if no opposition is received.

Our IP team conducts a prior art search, prepares your trademark application under the appropriate Nice classification, files it online, and tracks it through the entire process β€” responding to examination reports and opposition notices as required.
