brand registration in india

Description

A trademark is a recognizable sign, phrase, symbol, design, or a combination of these things that identifies products or services from a particular source and distinguishes them from those of others. It is a type of intellectual property that can be used by individuals, business organizations, or any legal entity. A trademark may be located on a package, a label, a voucher, or on the product itself. Trademarks used to identify services are sometimes called service marks. The essential function of a trademark is to exclusively identify the source or origin of products or services. It provides legal protection for your brand, helps you guard against counterfeiting and fraud, and prevents others from using a similar logo or brand name. Trademarks can be registered or unregistered, and registration provides broader rights and protections than an unregistered one.
