Frequently asked questions

How long does trademark registration take in India?

If no objections or oppositions arise, registration often takes 12–18 months. Examination reports and oppositions extend timelines—we track IP India status and draft replies promptly.

Which trademark class should I choose?

Classes depend on goods/services you sell today and may add in 3 years. Wrong class wastes fees and weakens enforcement—we run search reports and recommend a class strategy.

What is the difference between ™ and ® symbols?

™ can be used once you file an application. ® is used only after registration is granted. Using ® prematurely can attract penalties—we guide proper marking.

What happens if my trademark application receives an objection?

Examiners cite similarity or descriptiveness. We draft evidence of use, arguments, and consent strategies where viable. Ignoring objections leads to abandonment.

Can I trademark a logo and brand name together?

You can file a word mark, device (logo) mark, or combined mark. Separate filings give stronger protection for distinct elements—we advise based on budget and enforcement needs.
