If our experts find your requirement can't be fulfilled as scoped, you get a full refund of the professional fee — no questions, no fine print. Government charges already paid are pass-through and go to the government, not us.
Every quote shows the professional fee, government charges and taxes as separate lines — you approve the full breakup in writing before paying anything.
Stamp duty, filing fees and department charges go to the government, not to us. They vary by state, capital and applicant count, so we show them separately for your case.

Overview
What is Trademark Registration?
Trademark is a unique expression that is exclusive to a product or service and may be a symbol, slogan, word, color combination, logo, photograph etc. Most businesses choose to register their brand or logo as a trademark. The main property of a trademark is that once registered, no other entity can copy or use it. Trademark issues in India are handled through the Trademarks Act, 1999, by the Trademarks Registry. Before registration, one needs to check the availability of the trademark for which they wish to apply.
The business that registers a trademark has the right to sell its products under that brand in a certain sector of the economy. There are 45 sectors in which trademarks can be registered that are officially addressed as classes.34 of them are manufacturing classes and 8 of them are into a service class. For example, Class 12 represents vehicles, so trademark for a vehicle would have to be registered under Class 12.
Normally, Post application, you can use the symbol TM within 3 days, but the registration process takes up to six months to one year after which the symbol ® can be used. This registration is valid for 10 years after which one needs to apply for renewal.
Benefits
Advantages
Open each benefit to see what it means for you.
Avoiding Piracy/Duplicity
Trademarked brands are less likely to be duplicated by unregistered or illegal vendors due to fear of legal consequences,. This saves the credibility of the brand among consumers.
Intangible Asset
Trademark is an Intellectual Property, which is an intangible asset for any organization. It can be sold, franchised, or the owner can earn royalty through licensing agreements.
Global Trademark Filing
Once a trademark has been filed in India, it can be the basis of filing for the global trademark, if desired.
Creates Unique Identity
It creates a unique identity of your business. A trademark once registered gives one a license against others, if they use the same name of the company.
Enhances the Goodwill
A Company with a trademark creates goodwill among people. A trademark is the identity of the company which forms brand name among people.
Documents

What is a CIN?
Every Private Limited Company gets a unique 21-character Corporate Identification Number from the MCA. It's proof your company legally exists. You'll need it for bank accounts, tax filings, and contracts. We handle the entire application — you just provide the documents above.
Not sure if your documents are ready?
Send us what you have. A ComplyKart expert will review them for free and tell you exactly what's missing — no obligation.
Get Free Document ReviewQuestions Founders ask us about documents
What if my address proof is old?
Utility bills and bank statements must be less than 2 months old. If yours are older, get a fresh copy — the MCA rejects stale proofs.
Do I need original documents?
No. Clear scans or photos work for the entire process. We never ask you to courier originals.
What if directors live in different cities?
That's normal. Each director uploads their own documents separately. Our system keeps everything organised.
I'm outside India. Can I still register a company?
Yes. India allows 100% foreign ownership in most sectors, and the entire process happens online. You need one Indian resident director, and your passport + address proof must be apostilled — we'll guide you through both. NRI founders and foreign investors do this with us regularly.
Check if you're eligible →How long does registration actually take?
7 to 10 working days from the day your documents are verified. Name approval takes 2-3 days, MCA incorporation another 5-7. We track every stage and update you.
Can I start if I'm missing one document?
Yes. Start now with what you have — we begin name reservation and DSC while you arrange the rest. Most founders are missing one proof; it rarely blocks the timeline.
Process
Trademark registration process in India — step by step
You’ll see each stage, what’s pending and what we need from you — so filings don’t bounce back.
Step 1 of 7
Trademark search — is your brand name available?
We run a full availability search across all 45 classes of the Indian Trade Marks Registry before you spend a rupee. A conflicting mark is the single biggest cause of refusal, so this step saves you months.
Choose your class and draft the application
Trademarks are registered class-wise under the Nice Classification — class 25 for clothing, class 35 for retail services, and so on. We map your goods or services to the right classes and draft Form TM-A, the single application form used since the 2017 Trade Marks Rules.
File with the Trade Marks Registry
We file TM-A online with the appropriate registry (Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, or Ahmedabad, based on your address). You receive the ™ symbol rights immediately — you can start using ™ next to your brand from the filing date.
Examination by the Registrar
A Trademark Examiner checks your application, typically within 1–2 months. If the mark is descriptive or conflicts with an existing mark, you receive an examination report — an objection — which we answer for you.
Reply to objections (if any)
Objections are common and usually fixable. We file a legal reply within the deadline (typically 30 days) and, if needed, argue your case at a hearing before the Registrar. Most well-drafted replies clear at this stage.
Advertisement in the Trade Marks Journal
Once accepted, your mark is published in the weekly Trade Marks Journal. Anyone can oppose it within 4 months. If nobody opposes — the usual outcome — you move straight to registration.
Registration certificate — your mark is protected
The Registrar issues your registration certificate, valid for 10 years and renewable indefinitely. You can now use the ® symbol, and you have the legal right to stop copycats and claim damages. The full process typically takes 12–18 months if unopposed.
