Trademark Law Landscape in India:

Robust Protection and Enforcement: Trademark law in India provides a robust protection and enforcement regime for right holders. Our expertise covers the entire spectrum of protection, including words, labels, devices, shapes, sounds, colors, textures, and more.

First-to-Use Jurisdiction: India follows a first-to-use jurisdiction, giving priority in use precedence over priority in registration. Trademarks can be registered without actual usage in India on an intent-to-use basis.

International Protection through Madrid Protocol: As a member of the Madrid Protocol, India allows right holders to protect their trademarks in multiple countries through a single application, simplifying the international registration process.

Trademark Offices and Appellate Authority: India has five Trademark Offices in Ahmedabad, Chennai, Delhi, Kolkata, and Mumbai. The Intellectual Property Appellate Board (IPAB) serves as the appellate authority for adjudicating appeals against the orders of the Registrar of Trademarks and rectification petitions.
