What we do
- Clearance search across word, phonetic, device and transliterated variants — and the MCA company-name register, so you don't clear one and collide with the other
- Class selection and specification drafting that matches what you actually sell
- Filing (TM-A) with the right applicant category for the ₹4,500 fee where you qualify
- Examination-report replies (Section 9 / 11), show-cause hearings, and opposition or counter-statement proceedings — in person at Delhi where required
- Post-registration: renewal, assignment, licensing, watch service, and infringement notices
- Copyright for logos and content, and design registration for product shapes, where they add protection the trademark alone doesn't
Client: A Golf Course Road nutraceutical brand selling on three marketplaces.
Situation: Received a notice of opposition from a large FMCG company after advertisement; the marketplace threatened delisting pending resolution.
Approach: Filed the counter-statement within the two-month window, assembled evidence of distinct packaging, pricing and consumer base, and kept the marketplace informed with the registry's status.
Outcome: Opposition withdrawn after evidence stage; listing never interrupted.

Frequently asked questions
Which Trade Marks Registry handles applications from Gurugram?
The Trade Marks Registry, Delhi (jurisdiction for Haryana), decided by the applicant's principal place of business. Filing is online nationally, but examination, objections and hearings sit with that office — hearings for Gurugram applicants are in Delhi.
Which classes do Gurugram businesses usually need?
It depends on the goods or services, but the typical Gurugram profile is D2C consumer brands — Class 3 (cosmetics), Class 5 (nutraceuticals), Classes 29–30 (packaged food), Class 25 (apparel) — alongside Cyber City service marks in Classes 35, 36 and 42. Filing in the wrong or an incomplete set of classes is the most expensive mistake — a new application is needed to add a class later.
What does trademark registration cost?
Government fee ₹4,500 per class for individuals, startups and Udyam-registered MSMEs filing online, ₹9,000 per class for others. A registration lasts 10 years and is renewable indefinitely. Our professional fee is quoted after the search, before filing.
How long does it take?
Filing to examination report typically runs a few months; if no objection or opposition arises, registration commonly follows within 12 to 18 months of filing. You can use the ™ symbol from filing and ® only after registration.
What happens if I get an objection?
An examination report under Section 9 (descriptiveness) or Section 11 (similarity) must be answered within 30 days; a hearing may follow. Most objections are answerable with a properly argued reply and evidence — abandonment usually comes from missing the deadline, not from the merits.
Can I file before incorporating my company?
Yes — an individual or proprietor can apply, and the mark can be assigned to the company later. If incorporation is imminent, filing in the company's name avoids an assignment step; we sequence it with the incorporation.
