What is Trademark Registration?

A trademark is a unique sign — word, logo, slogan, shape, or combination — that distinguishes your products or services from those of others. Trademark registration under the Trade Marks Act, 1999 gives you an exclusive legal right to use the mark in India for 10 years (renewable indefinitely), the right to sue for infringement, and the ability to licence or franchise your brand. Registration creates an asset on your balance sheet and is often required by investors, franchisees, and e-commerce platforms.

VITTAX conducts a thorough trademark search (clearance search) before filing to minimise the risk of objection or opposition, then prepares and files the application on the IP India portal. We respond to examination reports, handle opposition proceedings, and ensure you receive the Registration Certificate. The ™ symbol can be used immediately upon filing; the ® symbol is only available after registration.

⚠️ The ™ symbol can be used immediately upon filing; the ® symbol is only available after registration. File early — priority is determined by filing date.

FAQs

How long does trademark registration take?

Typically 18–24 months for full registration. However, you can use ™ symbol immediately after filing, and the mark has legal protection from the filing date.

What if someone opposes my trademark?

Opposition proceedings are handled separately. We represent you before the Trade Marks Registry in opposition/counter-statement proceedings. Rates quoted on the complexity of the opposition.

Can I trademark a logo or just a word?

Both — you can register a word mark, a device/logo mark, or a combination mark. Each is a separate application. We advise which offers the strongest protection for your situation.
