Trademark Objection

Oftentimes, during the trademark registration process, the Trademark Registrar raises an objections on
the intended trademark if it violates rules and laws of trademark registration. It could be due to several
reasons like similarity with an existing trademark; offensive to a particular religion; absence of a
distinct design; etc. In the event of a trademark objection, a comprehensive reply needs to be filed
within a month, from the date of issuance of the objection.

Documents required for filing an objection with the department.

• Authorization letter
• Affidavit of usage
• Examination report
• Trademark hearing notice
• Documentary proof of Trademark in commercial use.
