Trademark registration is a process in which you protect your brand name, logo, symbol, slogan, sound or design through legal means. After successful Trademark registration you will be assured that no one else can use the same name, logo, symbol, slogan, sound or design you have chosen for your company. The Trademark is governed in India under the Trademarks act,1999.
For trademark registration Form TM-A needs to be submitted to the Trademark office. After the registration while it is in progress you may use the “TM” symbol (™) with your brand name to show that you are claiming trademark rights. After successful registration you can use the ® symbol to show that you have the right over the brand name, logo, symbol, slogan, sound or design.
All the goods and services are categorised in different classes under Trademark Act,1999. While registering yourself in Trademark first you need to know about the class under which your Goods or Services falls.
