If the examiner raises objections, we draft and file the response and attend hearings through appropriately qualified and independently engaged professionals, wherever required under applicable law.

Publication & registration

After journal publication, the certificate is granted and ® is yours to use.

Frequently asked questions

How long does trademark registration take in India?

Registration timelines vary substantially depending on examination, objections, opposition and Registry processing. Filing can ordinarily be completed promptly after receipt of the required documents. You may be able to use the ™ symbol from the day of filing; the ® symbol may be used only after the registration certificate is granted.

Can I use the ™ symbol immediately after filing?

Yes. Once the application is filed and you receive the acknowledgement, you may use ™ with your brand. The ® symbol may be used only after the registration certificate is granted.

What documents do I need for trademark registration?

For an individual: PAN, Aadhaar and the logo or wordmark. Contact us to know the exact pricing for your requirement.

Is my trademark valid outside India?

An Indian registration protects you in India only. For international protection we file through the Madrid Protocol, designating the specific countries where you need coverage.

What happens if my trademark is objected?

An examination objection is common and is not a rejection. Our team drafts and files a reply to the examination report, and represents the mark at a hearing if one is scheduled.
