Trademark Registration in India
If you are a citizen of India or come from any another country and you want to start a business in India, it is imperative that you trademark your name, logo, tagline, image, and slogan. Registering your trademark helps distinguish your products and assets from others, and ensures you have exclusive rights to use your brand name.
We have partnered with the leading service provider for trademark registration across India. We represent clients from India and across the globe who are willing to work and trade in India in conformity to the guidelines of India’s Ministry of External Affairs. Here are the steps we follow to get your trademark registered:
- Assign a licensed trademark attorney in India to register your trademark
- Provide consultation for the right Trademark Class
- Prepare a Trademark Search Report
- Draft all the necessary documents on your behalf
- Prepare and file your application for registration
Here are the documents we need to file for the registration of your trademark:
- ID proof: Aadhaar card (in case filing as an individual) or GST Certificate (in case filing for an organisation)
- Brand name and logo
- Proof of trademark use in case you are already a user
- Signed Power of Attorney for us to be able to file on your behalf
- KYC of your respective country if you’re not an Indian citizen
Please note that additional charges may be levied in the following circumstances:
- We receive an objection reply
- In case any out-of-pocket and hearing expenses have been incurred
- There’s an opposition case
- There are any other amendments
A trademark enables an individual or enterprise to acquire exclusive rights to use, distribute, or assign their brand name and assets. India is a competitive market with new businesses and products mushrooming on a daily basis. Protecting your brand is of utmost importance if you do not want to go back to the drawing board because someone else is using your logo or name. You’d rather focus on growing your business than worrying about someone else using your brand identity. Let us help you secure your brand and product line.
