1. Check who will handle your application

Ask for the name and role of the person responsible for the search, filing, replies and any hearing. Verify any claimed professional registration or qualification through the relevant official records. If your matter involves court proceedings, ask which qualified advocate will handle that work and whether it is included in the engagement.

2. Get the scope in writing

Confirm what you are buying: a trademark search, class advice, application filing, or support at later stages. Ask whether an examination-report reply, hearing, opposition work and ongoing status updates are included or separately quoted. Also confirm which filing acknowledgements and government receipts you will receive.

3. Compare the full cost

Ask for government charges, professional charges and applicable tax to be shown separately. The online TM-A fee is ₹4,500 per mark, per class for an individual, eligible startup or small enterprise, and ₹9,000 for other applicants. A company or LLP can qualify for the lower category where the applicable requirements are met.

Read our trademark fee guide and eligibility guide before comparing quotations. The cheapest headline price may cover a different scope, so compare the actual services and applicant category.

4. Check the proposed owner and classes

Explain the products or services sold under the brand and who should own the application. Ask why each proposed class is needed. A search and class-by-class explanation are more useful than an unexplained recommendation to file in many classes.

Our Ahmedabad trademark registration guide lists the information to prepare. You can also request a trademark search before deciding how to proceed.

5. Agree how updates and deadlines will be handled

Ask who will monitor the application, how official communications will reach you and how quickly the team will respond. Keep your own copies of the application, reports, replies and receipts. Discuss the next step whenever a report or notice arrives.

Questions to ask before engaging

Who handles my application and later work?

What is included, and what could cost extra?

Which owner and classes are proposed, and why?

How are government fees and professional charges shown?

How will I receive updates and copies of filed documents?

Be cautious about guaranteed-registration promises, missing written scope or unexplained fees. The Registry decides the application; a consultant should explain the process and the work being offered.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Under Section 145 of the Trade Marks Act, 1999, an applicant may act personally or through a duly authorised legal practitioner, registered trade marks agent, or person in the applicant's sole and regular employment. Confirm who will handle the search, filing, replies and hearings, and check the agent list the Registrar publishes under rule 155 of the Trade Marks Rules, 2017, or the advocate's Bar Council enrolment. Court representation is by an advocate.

A written quotation should state the scope: trademark search, class advice, filing, reply to the examination report, hearings, opposition work and status updates, and the receipts or copies each step produces. Government fees, professional charges and tax should be shown separately, along with the applicant category used for the official fee, because individuals, eligible startups and small enterprises pay a lower official filing fee than other applicants.

Be cautious of guaranteed-registration promises, quotations with no written scope of work, and fees that are not explained. The Trade Marks Registry, not the consultant, decides whether an application is accepted. A reliable consultant explains who should own the application, why each class is proposed, how official communications and deadlines will be tracked, and provides copies of every document filed.
