About this template
What is this template?
This is a formal filing directed to the Indian Registrar of Trade Marks to prevent name infringement. It is not an application for trademark registration itself, but a preliminary search request that requires a Rs.5,000 fee and submission in triplicate.
When should you use it?
Use this form when performing due diligence before incorporating a new company name in India. Use Form TM-A instead if you are ready to register a specific trademark rather than just searching for conflicts.
Who it's for
- an entity seeking to verify if a proposed company name conflicts with existing Indian trademarks
- applicants filing Form TM-75 with the Indian Trade Marks Registry
