A trademark is important because it protects your brand’s unique identity, preventing others from using similar names, logos, or symbols. It helps consumers recognize and trust your products or services, offering legal protection against infringement. A registered trademark also adds value to your business, providing exclusive rights to use and profit from your brand, while safeguarding its reputation and distinctiveness.

Types of Trademarks:

• Word Marks: Made up of words or letters.

• Design Marks: Logos and symbols.

• Combined Marks: Use both words and designs.

Once your brand is registered, you gain the rights to use the brand name exclusively.

Trademark Symbols:

• R Symbol (®): Indicates a fully registered trademark, protecting it from imitation.

• ™ Symbol: Shows that a trademark application is pending, granting some protection under common law. You can use this while waiting for full registration, which may take 4 months or more.

Trademark Classes:

Trademarks are categorized into 45 classes that represent different types of goods or services. Some examples in India include:

• Class 9: Electronics.

• Class 25: Clothing.

• Class 35: Advertising and marketing.

• Class 41: Education and entertainment

• Class 3: Cosmetics.

• Class 5: Medicine.
