Trademark Renewal

An Indian trademark registration is renewable for further ten-year periods. Before filing TM-R, verify the registration number, proprietor, classes, current status and expiry date. A timely renewal, late renewal with surcharge and restoration after removal are different procedural positions; the Registry record controls, not a generic reminder date.
