Did you know?

Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, Chennai, and Ahmedabad are India's five trademark registry offices. When a trademark is registered, its holder gets special rights to its use and is protected by law against infringement. The limitation period for registered trademarks is ten years. At the request of another party, a trademark may be cancelled if it has not been used for five years.

Non-renewal has severe consequences. As a result, any other person could claim the trademark and register it in their name.

Overview - Overview of Trade License or Registration

To start a business in India, you need a trade license. A trade license is a document that allows you to start a business in a specific trade in a specific area. An entrepreneur is assured of starting a business if the appropriate state government issues a trade license. In addition to not granting property ownership, a trade license does not allow the applicant to trade in only one particular business. Municipal Corporation regulates trade license acts by the State Government and issued after consulting with departments such as health, fire, engineering, etc. An enterprise that obtains a trade license must follow the rules, regulations, and guidelines. A Trade License ensures that an enterprise or business is not engaging in unethical practices or using hazardous materials that may harm those living within a defined area. By issuing it, the government can regulate trade activities across the country

Benefits - Benefits of Trade License or Registration

• Avoiding Frivolous Lawsuits

  A seamless trademark protection is possible without the risk of litigation. When trademarks are renewed, no one can claim rights over them other than the trademark owner.

• Ownership Rights Expansion

  It is possible to protect a brand name from infringing. After each renewal, the trademark's exclusive rights are extended for 10 years. As a result, your brand and goodwill are permanently protected.

• The Security of Brand Names

  The renewal of a trademark ensures continuous and unhindered protection of the brand name. When a brand name is not renewed, it loses its legal defence.
