Our Practice Areas
Four pillars of IP protection
Every business creates intellectual property. We help you identify, register, and enforce the rights that matter most — so your ideas remain yours.
Trademark Registration
Secure exclusive rights to your brand name, logo, tagline or any distinctive mark that identifies your goods and services in the marketplace across all 45 Nice Classification classes.
Copyright Protection
Protect original works of authorship — literary, artistic, musical, cinematographic, and software works — from unauthorised reproduction, distribution, or adaptation under the Copyright Act, 1957.
Patent Registration
Obtain a 20-year monopoly on your invention — whether a product, process, or method — by demonstrating novelty, inventive step, and industrial applicability under the Patents Act, 1970.
Design Registration
Register the visual, ornamental features of your product — its shape, configuration, pattern or ornamentation — and gain exclusive rights for 10 years, extendable by 5 more, under the Designs Act, 2000.
Know The Difference
Trademark vs Copyright vs Patent vs Design
Clients often confuse these four rights. Here's what each one actually protects, how long it lasts, and roughly what it costs to register in India.
| Basis | Trademark | Copyright | Patent | Design |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Protects | Brand names, logos, taglines, sounds, colours — anything identifying source | Original creative works — text, code, art, music, film | New inventions — products or processes | Visual appearance — shape, pattern, ornamentation of a product |
| Governing Law | Trade Marks Act, 1999 | Copyright Act, 1957 | Patents Act, 1970 | Designs Act, 2000 |
| Registration Needed? | Optional but strongly advised | No — exists on creation; registration aids enforcement | Mandatory for protection | Mandatory for protection |
| Duration | 10 years, renewable indefinitely | Author's life + 60 years | 20 years from filing | 10 years, extendable by 5 (15 max) |
| Typical Timeline | 12–18 months to registration | 1–3 months | 2–4 years to grant | 3–6 months |
| Indicative Cost Range* | ₹4,500 – ₹15,000 per class | ₹2,000 – ₹10,000 per work | ₹30,000 – ₹2,00,000+ depending on complexity | ₹8,000 – ₹25,000 per design |
| Use When | Protecting your brand identity in the market | Protecting creative or written content | Protecting a new technical invention | Protecting how a product looks, not how it works |

FAQ
Common questions
Straight answers on trademark, patent, copyright and design registration in India.
A trademark application is typically examined within 3–6 months of filing. If there's no objection or opposition, the mark is usually registered within 8–12 months. Contested applications can take longer, depending on opposition proceedings.
A trademark protects brand identifiers like names and logos. Copyright protects original creative works such as writing, art, and software code. A patent protects new inventions and technical processes. A design registration protects the visual appearance (shape, pattern, ornamentation) of a product.
Government filing fees depend on applicant type (individual/startup/MSME vs. company) and typically range from ₹4,500 to ₹9,000 per class. Professional fees vary by firm and complexity of the mark. We offer a free initial consultation to give you an exact quote.
You can technically self-file, but patent applications require precise technical drafting and claims language — errors here are difficult or impossible to fix later and can weaken or invalidate protection. Most inventors work with a registered patent agent or attorney to draft and prosecute the application.
A registered trademark is valid for 10 years and can be renewed indefinitely in further 10-year terms. A patent lasts 20 years from the filing date and is not renewable. A registered design is protected for 10 years, extendable by a further 5 years.
