Trademark Assignment in India

An overview- Trademark Assignment in India

An symbol, design, or expression can be used to identify a company's products or services through a trademark. It also helps in distinguishing the items or services from those offered by others. It is possible for a business, an individual, a non-profit, or some other type of legal body to have trademarks.

The owner of a trademark has the right to sell, share, licence, or transfer the trademark, just like any other asset. Trademark Assignment or licencing can be used to convey this form of ownership.

While trademark remain the property of the owner, some rights are granted to a third party in the case of licencing. With or without the business's goodwill, a trademark can be assigned. Assignment of a trademark, on the other hand, necessitates its entry in the trademark registry.

The interest, title, and rights in a registered trademark are transferred when a trademark owner assigns his or her trademark. The 'assignor' and the 'assignee' are two terms used to describe the party who transfers trademark rights in a trademark assignment.

Detailed process of Trademark Assignment in India

Intellectual property rights, with or without goodwill, are transmitted when a trademark is assigned or transferred. For the transfer of a registered trademark to a new owner, an application for a trademark assignment must be made in the manner required by law.

  • Any party wishing to request registration of the assignee as a subsequent proprietor must submit an assignment application in Form TM-P, which must be completed by both parties.
  • File a trademark application to the registrar within six months of acquiring the proprietorship.
  • The application can be submitted at a later date, however the fee may differ.
  •  Before six months have passed since delivery of the assignment or before the extended long term indicated by the registrar, a trademark registrar regulation is required for a non-goodwill assignment or a trademark assignment approved by the registry of trademarks.
  • The registrar specifies how and for how long the assignment should be advertised.
  • In order to make sure that the instructions have been followed appropriately, the office must have a copy of the registrar's directive and the assignment advertisement.
  • A trademark assignee can be registered as a trademark proprietor after receiving an application and the necessary paperwork from the registrar, if they are satisfied.
