    What is a Trademark Search?

    A trademark search is a process of checking the Indian Trademark Database to see if a proposed word, logo, tagline, or design is available for registration. 
    To be eligible for registration, a trademark needs to be unique. The more unique it is, the more likely it is to be accepted. 

    Why is a Trademark Search Important?

    keeps trademarks from being rejected because they are already in use.

    Avoids legal disputes and infringement claims.

    Saves time and money by identifying risks before filing.

    aids in improving the trademark to increase its likelihood of acceptance.

    Classification of Trademarks: Comprehending the 45 Classes

    According to the kinds of goods and services they represent, trademarks are categorised into 45 classes:

    34 classes for goods

    11 classes for services

    Choosing the correct class is essential for proper protection. Filing under the wrong class can lead to rejection or limited legal coverage.
