A trademark or trade mark is a distinctive sign or
indicator of some kind which is used by an individual,
business organization or other legal entity to uniquely
identify the source of its products and/or services to
consumers, and to distinguish its products or services
from those of other entities

A trademark is a device which can take almost any form,
as long as it is capable of identifying and distinguishing
specific goods or services.
A trademark may be designated by the following symbols:



          (for an Unregistered Trademark, that is, a
           mark used to promote or brand goods)



          (for an unregistered Service mark, that is, a
            mark used to promote or brand services)



          (for a registered trademark)
A trademark is typically a name, word, phrase, logo, symbol, design, image, sound
or a combination of these elements. There is also a range of non-conventional
trademark comprising marks which do not fall into these standard categories,
may therefore be visible signs (e.g. colors, shapes, moving images, holograms,
positions), or non-visible signs (e.g. sounds, scents, tastes, textures).
Indian Trademark law
 Indian trademark law provides protection
  to trademarks statutorily under the Trademark Act, 1999
  and also under the common law remedy of Passing Off.
 Passing off is a common law tort which can be used to
  enforce unregistered trademark rights. The tort of passing
  off protects the goodwill of a trader from a
  misrepresentation that causes damage to goodwill.
 Statutory protection of trademark is administered by the
  Controller General Of Patents, Designs and Trade Marks, a
  government agency which reports to the Department of
  Industrial Policy and Promotion(DIPP), under the Ministry
  of Commerce and Industry.
 The law of trademark deals with the mechanism of
  registration, protection of trademark and prevention of
  fraudulent trademark.
 The law also provides for the rights acquired by registration
  of trademark, modes of transfer and assignment of the
  rights, nature of infringements, penalties for such
  infringement and remedies available to the owner in case of
  such infringement.
HISTORY(Indian Context)
 The law of trademark in India before 1940 was based on
  the common law principles of passing off and equity as
  followed in England before the enactment of the
  first Registration Act, 1875.
 The first statutory law related to trademark in India was
  the Trade Marks Act, 1940 which had similar provision
  like the UK Trade Marks Act, 1938.
 In 1958, the Trade and Merchandise Marks Act, 1958 was
  enacted which consolidated the provisions related to
  trademarks contained in other statutes like, the Indian
  Penal Code, Criminal Procedure Code and the Sea
  Customs Act.
 The Trade and Merchandise Marks Act, 1958 was
  repealed by the Trade Marks Act, 1999 and is the current
  governing law related to registered trademarks. The 1999
  Act was enacted to comply with the provisions of
  the TRIPS(Agreement on Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual
  Property Rights).
 Though some aspects of the unregistered trade
  marks have been enacted into the 1999 Act, but they are
  primarily governed by the common law rules based on the
  principles evolved out of the judgments of the Courts.
 Where the law is ambiguous, the principles evolved and
  interpretation made by the Courts in England have been
  applied in India taking into consideration the context of
  our legal procedure, laws and realities of India.
Trademark
According to Section 2 (zb) of the Trade Marks Act,
1999, “trade mark means a mark capable of being
represented graphically and which is capable of
distinguishing the goods or services of one person
from those of others and may include shape of goods,
their packaging and combination of colours.” A mark
can include a device, brand, heading, label, ticket,
name, signature, word, letter, numeral, shape of goods,
packaging or combination of colours or any such
combinations

  of manufacture, the quality or other specific features

  other organizations for the use of members of the group in their commercial
  activities to indicate their membership of the group.
Advantages of Trademark Registration

2. Protects your Name / Brand Name from being used in a
   same or similar fashion, by any other business firm,
thus discourages others from cashing on your well built
   goodwill
3. Gives your products a status of .Branded Goods.
4. Gives an impression to your customers that the company is
   selling some standard Products or Services
5. The exclusive right to the use of the trade mark in relation
   to the goods or services in respect of which the
   trade mark is registered.
6. To obtain relief in respect of infringement (misuse by
   others) of the trade mark.
7. Power to assign (transfer) the trade mark to others for
   consideration.
Procedure/Steps for Trademark Registration
1. Filing of an application for registration by a person claiming to be the
    proprietor of a trademark, in the office of the Trade mark Registry, within
    the territorial limits of the place of business in India.
2. Examination of the application by the Registrar to ascertain whether it is
    distinctive and does not conflict with existing registered or pending
    trademarks and examination report is issued.
3. Publication of the application after or before acceptance of the application
    in the Trademark Journal.
4. After publication if any person gives notice of his opposition to the
    registration within three months which may be extended to the maximum
    of one month.
5. If the opposition has been decided in favour of the applicant of the
    registration of trademark, the Registrar shall register the Trademark.
6. On the registration of the Trademark the Registrar shall issue to the
    applicant a Trademark Registration
7. Today, as per the Trademark Rules, 2002, the application fees (similar to a
    tax) are Rs. 3500 per trademark.
Term/Duration of a Trademark in India
The term of registration of trademark is 10 (Ten) years, but
may be renewed subject to the payment of the prescribed fee,
in accordance with the provisions of the Trademarks Act,
1999. An application for renewal of a trademark can be filed
within six months from Constantia (Body) the expiry of the
last registration of trademark.

used when the mark is registered.

Trademark Infringement
Trademark Infringement is a violation of exclusive rights
attaching to a trademark without the authorization of the
trademark owner or any licensee. Trademark infringement
mostly occurs when a person uses a trademark which may be
either a symbol or a design, with resembles to the products
owned by the other party. The trademark owner may begin a
legal proceeding against a party, which infringes its registration.

Offences shall be punishable with imprisonment for a term of
minimum of six months but which may extend to three years
and with a minimum fine of fifty thousand rupees but which
may extend to two lakh rupees or more. For adequate and special
reasons mentioned in the judgement, the court may impose a
sentence of imprisonment for a term of less than six months or a
fine of less than fifty thousand rupees
Trademark Infringement
                    Example Case
Amul won trademark case in Gujarat HC in 2007

  It was conclueded that Utterly Butterly Delicious Amul's name cannot be used by
  any other proprietor even if the company is selling goods other than that sold by the
  proprietor, who has registered the trademark. In a significant judgment, the Gujarat
  High Court has ruled that a registered trademark user has the right to restrict others
  using their trademark for different class or goods.
  HC's judgment was in connection with a case where the Kaira District Co-operative
  Milk Producers' Union popularly Amul Dairy and the Gujarat Co-operative Milk
  Marketing Federation (GCMMF) had filed trademark infringement cases against
  two local shop owners, Amul Chasmaghar and Amul Cut Piece Stores in the district
  court. While Kaira Union owns brand Amul, GCMMF manages the brand.
  It was on April 25, in 2007 year that the district court had passed an order that it was
  a clear case of infringement and restrained the two from using Amul trademark.
  Amul Chasmaghar however had challenged the district court's interim injunction in
  the HC, where justice D N Patel upheld ruling of the district court.

     time, indefinitely;
   Trade mark can be assigned or transmitted;

    cause infringement under Trade Mark Act; and

There is also a range of non-conventional trademark comprising marks which do not fall into these standard categories, may therefore be visible signs (e.g. colors, shapes, moving images, holograms, positions), or non-visible signs (e.g. sounds, scents, tastes, textures).
  • 5. Indian Trademark law  Indian trademark law provides protection to trademarks statutorily under the Trademark Act, 1999 and also under the common law remedy of Passing Off.  Passing off is a common law tort which can be used to enforce unregistered trademark rights. The tort of passing off protects the goodwill of a trader from a misrepresentation that causes damage to goodwill.  Statutory protection of trademark is administered by the Controller General Of Patents, Designs and Trade Marks, a government agency which reports to the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion(DIPP), under the Ministry of Commerce and Industry.
  • 6.  The law of trademark deals with the mechanism of registration, protection of trademark and prevention of fraudulent trademark.  The law also provides for the rights acquired by registration of trademark, modes of transfer and assignment of the rights, nature of infringements, penalties for such infringement and remedies available to the owner in case of such infringement.
  • 7. HISTORY(Indian Context)  The law of trademark in India before 1940 was based on the common law principles of passing off and equity as followed in England before the enactment of the first Registration Act, 1875.  The first statutory law related to trademark in India was the Trade Marks Act, 1940 which had similar provision like the UK Trade Marks Act, 1938.  In 1958, the Trade and Merchandise Marks Act, 1958 was enacted which consolidated the provisions related to trademarks contained in other statutes like, the Indian Penal Code, Criminal Procedure Code and the Sea Customs Act.
  • 8.  The Trade and Merchandise Marks Act, 1958 was repealed by the Trade Marks Act, 1999 and is the current governing law related to registered trademarks. The 1999 Act was enacted to comply with the provisions of the TRIPS(Agreement on Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights).  Though some aspects of the unregistered trade marks have been enacted into the 1999 Act, but they are primarily governed by the common law rules based on the principles evolved out of the judgments of the Courts.  Where the law is ambiguous, the principles evolved and interpretation made by the Courts in England have been applied in India taking into consideration the context of our legal procedure, laws and realities of India.
