Hello,

I would be able to help you in filing the Trademark application. If its a proprietary concern the address proof of your residential house would be sufficient. Since the TM office is a goverment body one cannot predict how much time it will take for registration. There is a procedure involved in procuring a TM application. I can provide you with a requirement sheet for what all documents are required. Hope this helps!

Let me know if you have any queries.

Regards,

Hi,

The same address may be valid but you need to specify your business because some of the business may not be operated from residential complexes. As far as, the basic requirements of Trade mark registration are concerned, you need to apply to registrar in the specific format and the cost involved may be upto Rs. 10000/- depending on the circumstances such as objection etc. by parties, rectification etc. The time line may be up to 18 to 24 months depending on the circumstances.

1) As of now you can provide your Business Address as Residential Address.

2) Normal TAT is 24 -30 months

4) - Trademark or logo copy

- Applicant details like name, address and nationality and for company: the state of incorporation

- Goods or services to register

- Date of first use of the trademark in India, if used by you prior to applying.

- Power of attorney to be signed by the applicant

1. The address of the registered office of your company can be same as your residential address.

2. It'll take around 10-12 months to get the trademark issued to your company. First step is to conduct search to check whether your business name or logo is similar to other already registered trademarks. Based on the results of the search conducted, the trademark attorney will draft trademark application, provided that your business name / logo found to be unique. If someone already has the same or similar trademark, you need to change yours. Or if you are of opinion that the trademark is rightfully yours and you are using it since long time even before other party trademark registration. You can start using ™ symbol as soon as you file the form of trademark application.

3. The procedure will be started as soon as you hire a trademark attorney and he will start the search and requisite documentation. Fees charged by the advocates varies from person to person.

4. Documents required are:

Signed Form-48.

Trademark registration can be obtained for words, logo, numerals, slogan, device and more in India.

Trademark registration is however a long process involving multiple steps.

Once a trademark search is completed, the application for trademark registration can be filed with the Trademark Registrar.

A trademark registration application must contain the following information:

Logo or the Trademark

Name and address of the trademark owner

Classification or Trademark Class

Trademark used since date

Description of the goods or services

Once the Trademark registration application is filed with the Trademark Registrar, a trademark application allotment number is provided within one or two working days. The trademark application can also then be tracked online through the Online Trademark Search facility. Typically, on obtaining trademark application allotment number, the owner of the trademark can affix the TM symbol next to the logo.

Once the trademark registration application is accepted by the Trademark Registrar, the proposed trademark is published in the Trademark Journal.

If the trademark registration application is opposed by a third-party, hearing will be called for by the Trademark Hearing Officer. Both the trademark applicant and the opposing party have the chance to appear at the hearing and provide justifications for registration or rejection of the trademark application.

Once there are no objections or oppositions for the trademark registration application, the trademark manuscript and trademark registration certificate will be prepared and sent to the trademark application. Once the trademark registration certificate is issued, the trademark is considered to be a registered trademark of the owner, granting the trademark owner exclusive use of the mark. The ® symbol can now be placed next to the logo or trademark.

You may have to look for the services of the trademark agents/consultants in this regard who will be able to complete this task ion their terms.

1. yes this can be mentioned as a valid address.

2. 6-12 months, you will have to give IDs and date of first use of trade mark.

3. You should take help of a lawyer so that the same is filed in the relevant classes, govt. fee for one class is 9,000/- Rs.
