How often must a trademark be renewed?

Every 10 years from the date of registration, under s.25 of the Trade Marks Act 1999. The renewal can be filed up to 6 months before the expiry date.

What is the government fee for renewal?

₹5,000 per mark per class (Rule 81 / First Schedule). Restoration (if filed after expiry) attracts an additional ₹3,000 per mark per class under Rule 83.

What happens if I miss the renewal deadline?

The mark is removed from the Register under s.25(3). You can restore it within 6–12 months after expiry by paying the additional ₹3,000 restoration fee. After 12 months, the mark is permanently lost.

What is the difference between renewal and restoration?

Renewal is filed before the expiry date (or within 6 months after, with surcharge). Restoration is filed 6–12 months after expiry — requires the additional ₹3,000 fee plus the standard renewal fee.

Can I renew a trademark in only some classes?

Yes — each class is renewed independently. If you no longer need a class, simply do not renew that class; the Register entry for that class lapses.

Do I need to submit evidence of use at renewal?

No — renewal under s.25 does not require evidence of use. Use is required only if a s.47 non-use removal is filed against the mark.

Will the Registrar send me a renewal notice?

The Registrar issues a notice of expiration under Rule 82, but it is best practice to track the date independently. I-Pro tracks renewal dates for its clients and sends reminders.

Can I renew a trademark that has been assigned?

Yes — renewal is filed by the current registered proprietor (assignee). If the assignment is not yet recorded, file TM-P first, then TM-R.

What's included

Everything in one transparent fee — no add-ons, no surprises.

Investor-Centric AOA Drafting

If you plan to raise institutional funding, standard Articles of Association (AOA) will not suffice. Venture capitalists demand specific clauses regarding right of first refusal (ROFR), tag-along/drag-along rights, and anti-dilution provisions. Our elite corporate lawyers draft sophisticated AOAs that anticipate future funding rounds, preventing costly and time-consuming structural overhauls when you secure term sheets.

Complex Multi-Founder Structuring

Co-founder disputes are the leading cause of early-stage startup failure. We don't just register your company; we advise on optimal equity splits, director roles, and authorized capital distribution. We provide templates for Co-Founder Agreements and vesting schedules, ensuring that the foundational relationship between partners is legally documented and aligned for long-term stability.

Rapid SPICe+ Processing Engine

Time is of the essence for startups. We utilize an advanced compliance engine that preemptively validates all data entered into the SPICe+ (INC-32) form. By cross-referencing PAN databases, checking DIN eligibility, and formatting registered office proofs perfectly, we eliminate typographical errors that typically cause frustrating ROC resubmission delays, ensuring first-pass approval.

Strategic Authorized Capital Advisory

Determining your initial Authorized Share Capital is a delicate balance. Set it too low, and you'll immediately face high fees to increase it during your first seed round. Set it too high, and you pay unnecessary upfront government stamp duty. We analyze your 12-to-18-month funding roadmap to recommend the exact optimal capital structure that minimizes immediate costs while accommodating your immediate growth.

ESOP Implementation Framework

Attracting top-tier talent in the startup ecosystem often requires offering Employee Stock Ownership Plans. A Private Limited Company is the only structure that efficiently supports this. As part of our premium advisory, we structure your initial cap table to accommodate a future ESOP pool seamlessly, ensuring you are ready to incentivize your founding team.

Comprehensive Post-Incorporation Toolkit

Receiving the Certificate of Incorporation is just the starting line. Within the first 30 to 180 days, you must open a bank account, appoint a statutory auditor (ADT-1), and file the Commencement of Business (INC-20A). We provide a complete post-incorporation execution service, handling these mandatory compliance milestones so you can focus entirely on product development and sales.

Common mistakes to avoid

Avoidable filing errors that cause delays or rejection. Each can be resolved before submission.

1
Mismatched applicant legal name or identity details across KYC proofs
Why: Government verification APIs cross-check with UIDAI and MCA databases and automatically flag discrepancies in spelling or dates.
Fix: Our specialists pre-validate your documents against official government databases before portal filing.
2
Submitting outdated utility bills or non-notarized commercial leases
Why: Premises proofs older than 60 days or defective landlord NOCs trigger statutory scrutiny queries and multi-week processing delays.
Fix: We verify recent billing dates and provide pre-formatted, legally vetted landlord NOC and lease formats.
3
Selecting incorrect classification, turnover slab, or statutory activity code
Why: Applications filed under inappropriate classifications attract show-cause notices and potential rejection without statutory fee refund.
Fix: We conduct a statutory scope assessment to align your application with the exact regulatory requirements.
