Trademark and Logo Registration Procedure in India

 Trademark is a logo, sign or design which is recognized and identified with products or services of a distinct owner. A trademark owner can be a business organization, legal entity or an individual. You can find a trademark on a label, package, and voucher or on the product itself. Even companies have their trademark attached on company buildings for corporate identity.
The fundamental concept of trademark is to give an exclusive identity to the commercial value and origin of the product or service. Different goods and services are classified by International Classification of Goods and services into forty five classes of trademark. (From 1 to 34 covers classes of goods and from 35 to 45 covers services).
