Trademark Rectification in Karnataka
What is Trademark Rectification?
Trademark rectification is a type of intellectual property that enable the company to protect a phrase or visual sign that it uses to identify its goods or services from identical goods or services provided by another company. To register a trademark, the applicant must file a trademark application in the prescribed format with the federal Trade Mark Registrar.
The Trade Marks Registrar would process a trademark application once it had been received. If the Examiner notices any mistakes with the trademark application, he or she will mark it as a Formalities Successful Fail and request that it be rectified. If no objections are raised, the Trademark Examiner may allow the trademark application to be advertised prior to the closing or it may object to registration.
If the Trademark Examiner finds the rectification sufficient and therefore it addresses all from his or her concerns, the application is processed and marked for inspection by a Trademark Examiner for the objective of making a Trademark Assessment Report.
6 Essential Facts on Trademark Rectification
Lack of distinctiveness (Section 9): When the Registrar/Examiner considers the trademark to be generic and descriptive of the goods/laudatory/indicating the quality or nature of the good, and then the trademark doesn't stand out in the market and is objected. Similarity with pending or registered marks (Section 11): When there is an identical/similar trademark in respect of identical/similar goods/services already on record in the Trade Mark Registry.
A trademark grants you commerical rights to sell a particular brand name in a certain sector of the economy. There are 45 sectors and each sector is called a class. For instance, Class 28 refers to Toys, Games, and Sports. So if you want to protect your toy brand, you need to make an application under Class 28 and get exclusive commercial rights, to sell your brand of toys under that class.
If you have a certain brand name, or a logo, or a slogan in mind, we can do a trademark search for you. A simple way to do this yourself, is to just go online to the internet and check if there is a similar company with a similar name to yours, on the internet. You should also check if the domain name of your brand is available or not.
No need to worry. If your trademark brand name is taken, you can prepare a Logo Composite Mark by combining you logo and your name, and apply as one. This is a common strategy used to apply for a trademark, even if the trade name itself has been taken.
