A trademark is a visual symbol, generally refers to a brand name. A trademark or service mark could be any word, recognized sign, symbol, tagline, device, or any combination thereof, used or intended to be used to identify and distinguish the goods or services of one party from those of others, and to indicate the source of the goods and services.

Trademarks are classified based on the items or services that they protect. There are 45 distinct trademark classes.  Product-related marks are grouped as 1 to 34, whereas service-related marks are designated as 35 to 45.

Properly used and promoted, A registered trademark is an intangible asset or intellectual property for a business and is used to protect the company’s goodwill in the brand. In order to secure legal rights and protection, it is essential to obtain trademark registration for the business name/ trade name under the Trademarks Act. Registration of a business name or a company under the Companies Act does not give protection against others who might use identical or similar marks commercially.

The validity of a trademark registration is 10 years; an application for renewal must be filed six months before the expiry of the validity period.

The TM symbol stands for trademark, which notifies the public that the company is claiming exclusive ownership of the trademark. The TM symbol is generally used by the applicant who has filed a trademark application.

The ® symbol can be used only once the registration certificate is issued. Also, you may use the registration symbol only in connection with the goods/services in respect of which the trademark is registered. The process for registration for both trademarks and service marks is the same.

File for the exclusive rights to a logo, name, slogan, or symbol that identifies your product or business.

Why register a trademark?

  • Exclusive rights: Trade mark registration gives the owner the right to exclusive use of the mark in respect of the goods or services covered by it. A registration certificate is documentary evidence that clearly outlines the rights and validity of the registration. Registration of a trade mark is a powerful remedy against unauthorized use. A trademark registration allows the owner to sue for infringement and obtain very powerful remedies such as interdicts, delivery of infringing articles, and damages.
  • Brand identity: A trademark serves as a status symbol; a brand is built upon consistently providing a satisfying experience to customers with quality product and services. Branded products are often misused by others by providing cheap products or services that are deceptive to customers, eventually leading to a loss of trust among the customers. Therefore, it is very important to register a trademark. so that legal action can be initiated against unauthorized use. A registered trademark demonstrates that you take your business seriously.
  • Protect: By registering a trademark gives you an exclusive right and protects your business from competitors. It helps to protect your hard earned goodwill in business. It prohibits anyone from using it without prior permission, and it gives the owner legal rights to sue and demand damages for the infringement if anyone uses it.
  • Hypothecation: A registered trade mark is considered intangible property; it can be pledged as security to secure loan facilities in much the same way as immovable property can be bonded.
  • Enforce: It is easier and cheaper to enforce your protection, it makes it much easier for you to take legal action against anyone who uses your trademark without your permission, and you can approach police to bring criminal charges against counterfeiters if they use your trade mark;The use of the ® symbol will also deter others from using it. However, using the ® symbol for a trade mark that is not registered is an offense.
  • Add Value: A registered trademark creates an intangible asset, which means you can sell it, franchise it, or let a third party have a license that allows them to use it.

A trademark application can be filed under the following categories:

  • Word mark (it includes one or more words, letters, numerals, or anything written in standard character),
  • Device mark (it includes any sticker, monogram, label, logo or any geometrical figure other than a word mark),
