Trademark filing and securing Trademark Registration is altogether a distinct recreation. In case your brand is actually specific, there might be a chance that you can protect the trademark registration just within 7-8 months (but you could begin the use of your trademark from the date of submitting itself). During this process, one of the reason that can delay the timeline of your brand getting registered, is it if receives an objection from the ministry. Though, there is no way you can predict or assure the occurrence of this objection, you can at least try to avoid it by following a few things before making the application.

Do conduct a thorough search: • Conduct both word mark search as well as phonetic search. • Suppose you have chosen word CURVE as your brand name, so you need to search availability of word CURVE as it is and also KURVE, KARVE, CORVE And all other possible combinations of word that are either resulting in same sound or similar sound. • Collect the search reports and properly analyze them. In case there exist a similar sounding word already on record, try to choose another brand name.

That is it must not be descriptive in nature, you might find it strange but trademark law does not allow mark that exactly describes the nature of your products or goods however generally people tend to opt for such names. So it is always advisable to opt for a coined word, words that have no dictionary meaning and makes no direct reference to your products or goods.

7. Do not use the name of any geographic location: • Try to avoid using name of any geographic location or place such as India, even though it may be cleared if used in combination of words, but generally in most case such trademarks often get objected under section 9.

8. Do not make any clerical error: • The most common mistake people make while filing for trademark application, is writing a wrong goods/service description. Even though when you are sure that your product falls in a certain class, try not to use a common term for it. Always check the exact language that is given under nice classification, select the words and description accordingly. Let us understand this more clearly by taking an example.
