New Trademark Rules 2017
-COMPLETE REFERENCE BY
COMPANY360.IN
Major Changes in Trademark Rules
Division in Applicant category
Three types of Applicant category are made:
1) Individual
2) Start-up/SME
3) Others
Changes in Trademark Forms
Reduction in number of forms:
1) In the new Trademark rules the number of forms
has been drastically reduced to 8 from 78
Claim of Usage:
2) Initially the trademark application TM-1
applicable earlier, the applicant was allowed to
claim usage even before the date of filing of
application and it was the prerogative of the
Examiner to call for affidavit of usage.
Other Changes:
• Reduction in number of adjournments: Initially, there was
no bar on adjournments but now the parties need to
request for the adjournment along with prescribed fees
and it is further notified that no party shall be given more
than 2 adjournments and each adjournment shall not be
more than 30 days. This will surely expedite the process of
Trademark proceedings.
• Change in Renewal filing: Earlier the applicant was allowed
to file for a renewal of a trademark application only 6
months before the expiry date, however, this has now been
changed to 1 year before the expiry which gives much time
for the applicant to renew the Trademark application
timely.
Contd:
• Recognition as a Well-known mark: In previous Trademark
legislation, well known marks were chosen by the court but
in Trademark rules 2017, anyone can apply for recognition
of their brand as well known under rule 124 by payment of
Rs 1 lakh along with the supporting documents, evidences
and statements of case.
• Correction in application will cost you more: Initially the
applicant was able to correct any clerical error in
application by way of filing of TM-16 form, however, now
the fee for any correction request has been increased from
500 Rs to 900 Rs. So be careful about filing of Trademark
Application.
