Secure your trademarks, copyrights, and patents before you launch. We help international businesses safeguard their intellectual property in India, defending your brand identity against local infringement and squatters.
Intellectual Property rights are strictly territorial. A trademark registered in the US, UK, or EU does not automatically grant you protection in India. Foreign brands are frequent targets for "trademark squatters"—local entities that register your global name in India before you do, forcing a costly buyout. Registering your IP in India before you commence marketing or operations is the only definitive way to secure your brand identity, software, and proprietary technology.
Comprehensive clearance searches and filing of trademark applications (word marks, logos, device marks) with the Indian Trademark Registry. We handle all examiner objections and hearings to secure your registration.
Strategic assistance for foreign entities looking to extend their international trademark applications to India via the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) Madrid system.
Statutory protection for your original works, including software code, website content, training manuals, marketing materials, and literary works under the Indian Copyright Act.
Guidance on patentability in the Indian market. We assist technology, SaaS, and manufacturing companies in filing utility patents to protect their unique inventions and processes from local replication.
Continuous monitoring of the Indian Trademark Journal for conflicting marks. We draft and serve Cease & Desist notices and manage IP litigation to stop unauthorized use of your brand.
Specific enforcement for retail and tech brands to take down counterfeit products or unauthorized sellers copying your intellectual property on Indian marketplaces like Amazon India or Flipkart.
We don't just file blindly. We conduct deep identical and similarity searches across the Indian registry to assess the exact probability of your mark's success before you spend a dime.
Foreign companies must have a registered Indian agent/attorney to file IP applications. We act as your official attorney on record with the Indian IP Office.
If we detect infringement or a squatter, we mobilize immediately with aggressive legal notices to protect your market share.

No. Trademark rights are territorial. Unless you have filed an international application designating India (like through the Madrid Protocol) or filed directly with the Indian Trademark Registry, your brand is not statutorily protected here.
If there are no objections from the examiner and no oppositions from third parties, the process typically takes 6 to 12 months. However, the moment we file your application, you receive an application number and can legally start using the "TM" symbol in India to signify your claim.
Yes, this is known as "trademark squatting." While India recognizes the concept of "well-known" international trademarks and "prior use," fighting a squatter who registered your name first is a long and expensive legal battle. Filing early is the best defense.
