The trade mark registration process in India consists of the following main components before the trademark is granted:
• Apply the brand in the appropriate category, with all the correct details.

• Examination of formalities – This is the first step in verifying the application of trademarks, as the trademark registry usually checks to meet the basic requirements. This includes checking whether the service program has been downloaded (upon filing by a lawyer) and whether the appropriate written/written translation has been deposited if the translator is not deposited in the English / Hindi language.
• Issuing the examination report from the Ministry – upon checking the basic details, the Registry examines the request contained under the various departments to see if the trademark you requested requires any clarification under any of the legal parts of the law. When they feel that any information is needed, they will issue an examination report with the relevant department to which the response should be provided.
• Examination report issued/accepted – after accepting the trademark application or submitting it. Examination response if the record is satisfied, then the brand name, symbol, or both will be followed up to be published in the Trademark Book.
