Trademark Registration
A registered trademark gives you exclusive rights to use your brand mark and the legal standing to stop others from copying it. Our trademark attorneys handle end-to-end filing on IP India's IPRS portal.
What is Trademark Registration?
Trademark Registration is the process of obtaining legal ownership over a brand name, logo, slogan, or combination thereof under the Trade Marks Act, 1999. Once registered, you can use the ® symbol, license or sell the mark, and take legal action against infringers. The registration is valid for 10 years and is renewable indefinitely.

Frequently asked questions
How long does trademark registration take?
After filing, examination typically takes 3–6 months. If no objections are raised and no oppositions are filed during the 4-month publication window, the certificate is issued — total timeline is usually 12–18 months.
What classes should I file under?
India follows the Nice Classification system (45 classes). You file in the class(es) that cover your specific goods or services. We help you select the right class(es) to maximise protection.
Can I use ™ before my trademark is registered?
Yes. ™ can be used as soon as you file the application. The ® symbol can only be used after registration.
What happens if my application is objected to?
We prepare a detailed reply to the examination report. If the objection is not resolved in writing, we represent you at the hearing before the Registrar.
Is a trademark valid across India?
Yes. A trademark registered in India gives protection across the entire country under the Trade Marks Act, 1999.
