Major changes brought about by the Trademark Rules,2017
The Government of India took forth the initiative to draft a new set of rules that are in alignment with the objective of fastening the procedure of trademark filing while decreasing red-tapism and delays.

A notification regarding the draft rules for Trademarks was published by the Government of India in November 2015 inviting objections and suggestions from people who are likely to be affected by the said rules. Keeping in view the suggestions received and objections raised, the Central Government has formulated Trademark Rules 2017,thereby replacing the Trademark Rules 2002.It came into effect on 6th March,2017.
