Trademark Registration
A trademark is a unique symbol—a word, logo, or label—that provides a distinct identity to a business. A registered trademark is a valuable intellectual property asset that protects your brand and reputation. Governed by the Trademark Act, 1999, a registered trademark is valid for ten years and can be renewed indefinitely.
Benefits of Trademark Registration:
- Exclusive Rights: Grants the owner the exclusive right to use the trademark and provides legal protection against infringement.
- Creation of an Asset: A registered trademark becomes a valuable intangible asset that can be sold, licensed, or franchised.
- Unique Identity: Builds trust, goodwill, and a sense of quality assurance among customers.
- Use of the ® Symbol: Once registered, the owner can use the ® symbol, which acts as a public notice of protection.
- Global Filing Basis: A trademark registered in India can be used as a basis for registration in other countries.
