Introduction

For developing new products and methods, brand names, content, etc. there is always a need of huge investments and resource-intensive. Hence, the expectation of the individuals or entities producing them must have particular rights over their creation to the exclusion of others. Intellectual Property systems and laws provide this individuality.

There are certain forms of IP like trademark through which the right to control is born, the day the work is produced and registered. Though registration is not mandatory but gives some benefits and advantages like serves as prima facie proof of the owners by making it simpler to enforce the IP right in court. Otherwise, the registered owner will have to go through a long process to justify the fairness that the IP belongs to him in case IP is used illegally.

Sometimes the trademark office may have objections on the trademark application applied if the said application does not meet their legal norms. However there can be many other reasons for trademark objection like similarity between logo or word applied with any existing one or due to the sentiments of people attached with any religion. If any objection is received like this from department/ Registrar, then a reply is to be made within a month i.e. within 30 days. A legal objection letter is received from Trademark department whenever any objection is raised and if no steps are taken to justify and differentiate the originality of the word or mark applied then the Registrar has the full rights to abandon the application.
