Trademark monitoring for India
Someone is filing your name. Find out this week.
A registered trademark doesn’t defend itself, and the Registrar won’t call you. If a confusingly similar mark is published in the IP India Trademark Journal and nobody opposes it within four months, it registers. After that you are fighting it in court.
First mark free, then ₹500/year
How it works
01
Tell us the mark you own
Your registered or applied-for wordmark, and the classes it covers. Your first mark is free for a year, so there's no card to add just to find out whether anything is coming.
02
We read every journal issue
The IP India Trademark Journal publishes weekly. We scan each issue against your mark on phonetic and visual similarity, not just exact string, so KWALITY and QUALITEE both surface.
03
You hear within hours
Red-flag conflicts at 70% similarity or above email you immediately. Lower-similarity matches roll up into a monthly summary, so the urgent alert stays urgent.
Pricing
First mark free. ₹500 a year after that.
This is priced like compliance, not software. An opposition filed inside the window costs a fraction of what a rectification action costs afterwards. Missing the window is the only expensive mistake here.
- First mark — free for 1 year, no card
- Each additional mark — ₹500 / year
- Weekly journal scan on every mark
- Immediate email on ≥70% similarity
- Monthly roll-up for everything below
Questions
- What counts as a conflict?
- We match on phonetic and visual similarity across the classes your mark covers, not on exact string. That's the same standard an examiner applies, and it's why a plain text search of the register misses most real threats.
- Do I need a registered trademark to use this?
- No. An applied-for mark, or even an unregistered mark you trade under, can be watched. Knowing early matters more when your own position is weaker.
- What do I do when an alert arrives?
- The alert carries the application number, the applicant, the class, the journal issue and the date the opposition window closes. That's what an IP attorney needs to act on. We don't file oppositions for you.
- How is this different from Competitor Watch?
- This one is defensive: it watches for filings that threaten a mark you own. Competitor Watch is the opposite. You name the rivals, and we report what they file whether or not it touches you.
