The application, when it is accepted by the Registry, is published in a journal for a period of 4 months and is open for opposition by Third Party. After completion of 4 months, where no opposition by third party is received, the Registration Certificate of the trademark is issued by the Registrar.

It is always advisable to contest the rejected trademark or apply for a new trademark application, as the case may be. Trademark registration is mandatory for taking legal action against infringers.
What our users have to say
I was planning to buy a plot in Nagpur. Before buying the land, I wanted to get all the documents verified and ensure it is free of fraud and forgery. LegalKart undertook every step carefully and their team was very responsive. I am impressed by their professionalism and would highly recommend their service.

I had purchased a flat in Bangalore. The builder had delayed possession from the committed date. I was paying a high EMI and rent which increased my monthly cash outflow and this left me with no money at the end of the month. I was very stressed and didn’t know what to do. I came across LegalKart and their Property Expert Lawyer advised me to send a legal notice to the Builder and also appeal to the RERA for the delayed possession. I got compensation from the builder for the delay and finally also got possession of my flat.
