Get Your Instant Free Trademark Search Report in INDIA

Before forming a company, or booking a domain name, one should perform a Trademark Search. This helps in avoiding the loss that will be incurred in case you come to know that the company name or domain name taken by you, have been trademarked by someone else. In this case, you are legally bound to get your company name changed and surrender the domain name or not use it for business activities, thus resulting in unwanted expenses.

To make the most of your brand name, you should also get a .com or .in domain name registered for your brand name. Along with that you should also secure the Social Media handles for your brand name. But, all of this once your Trademark Search report is Positive!

A Positive Trademark Search report safeguards you from the following obstacles that any trademark application has to go through to obtain registration:

- Trademark Objection

- Trademark Hearing

- Trademark Opposition

- Trademark Rectification

Though, it does not guarantee that your application will not go through all these, but has a good chance of not getting your application stuck in these above mentioned stages.

Yes, if there is an Exact Matching brand name already registered in the Trademark Registry, then the search report is predicting the accurate future of your trademark application. But still, the final authority on whether to grant a trademark application registration rests in the hands of the Registrar alone. The Search report can only give an idea which can be relied upon before filing the application. There are many brand names, whose search report was negative as they we’re matching some already registered applications, yet they have been accepted by the registrar. But, never the less, they we’re not matching 100% with the existing ones.

No, Even if your report is Positive, there are many other factors that govern whether a trademark is to be given registration or not. The Trademark Search Report only checks for similar or matching brand names in the trademark registry. This only secures Section 11 part of the Trademarks Act. There is a Section 9 part of the Trademarks Act which can refuse a brand name the right to be trademarked based on other factors. As mentioned above, the sole right to grant registration, rests alone with the Trademark Registrar only.

A detailed and expert trademark search report can give a 90% guarantee on whether your trademark application will get accepted or not. We have been in this field since the last 12 Years and have been able to provide very accurate Trademark Search Reports to our clients. The alterations in the brand names that we provide, have been able to get the applications accepted smoothly. Our aim is to get our client’s trademark applications accepted as early as possible without it going through an objection or hearing at all.

A Comprehensive trademark search report covers aspects which are even outside of the trademark database.
