About this template

What is this template?

This is a prescribed statutory filing under the Indian Trade Marks Act, 1999 for modifying the details of a registered user. It is not a licensing agreement itself, but rather the administrative form used to notify the Registrar of variations to an existing license. It specifically requires a statement of grounds and the written consent of the registered user if provided.

When should you use it?

Use this form when you need to update the Registrar's records regarding the scope of a trade mark user's rights after they have already been registered. Use Form TM-28 instead if you are applying for the initial registration of a user rather than a variation of an existing one.

Who it's for

  • a registered proprietor in India seeking to change the specification of goods for an authorized user
  • a trade mark owner modifying the conditions or restrictions of a registered user's license
