Every plan includes trademark search, filing, and your certificate. Government fees are charged separately, at actuals.
Covers the essentials: AI search, official filing, and your certificate. Objection reply is not included — if the examiner raises one, you can upgrade or handle it separately.
Objection handling not included — upgrade to Protect anytime.
Everything in File, plus full objection coverage — reply, hearing, representation. Objections are the most common post-filing event; Protect handles them without extra billing.
Everything in Protect, plus full opposition defence — counter-statement, evidence by affidavit, and opposition hearing. Opposition from third parties is rarer than objections, but can be costly when it arises; Complete covers it.
Trademarks commonly face an objection from the department — Protect covers it. Opposition from a third party is far rarer — Complete covers that too.

Not sure what objection and opposition mean? They are the two stages after filing where most surprises happen — and the key reason most businesses need more than a basic filing service. Read: Objection vs Opposition — What Happens After You File →
Enter your brand name and what your business does. Our AI searches the official trademark register, recommends the right classes for your business, scores your availability risk, and shows your exact filing cost — all in one flow, in under 30 seconds.
Moves your application to the front of the examination queue — the examiner reviews your application faster. An additional government fee applies. Available on all plans.
Honest caveat: expedited examination speeds up one stage only — the examiner's review. The standard ~4-month opposition window and the overall ~12–18 month registration timeline still apply. Whether it is worth the additional cost depends on your situation.
Our AI search runs on officially licensed trademark register data — the same source used for professional searches — not a partial or outdated copy.
The AI similarity search and class recommendation give you an indicative risk assessment in seconds. All AI outputs are labelled as indicative — not legal advice.
Your instant search report is AI-generated for speed. Before we file, a qualified professional reviews your application and the search — human oversight at the stage that matters.
The fees on this page are the fees you pay. Government fees are shown separately and honestly labelled as statutory charges. No hidden add-ons mid-process.
All three plans include AI trademark search, official filing, and your certificate. File (₹1,000/class) covers filing only — if the Trademark Examiner raises an objection, that is not included. Protect (₹2,000/class) adds objection reply and hearing — handling the most common post-filing event. Complete (₹5,500/class) adds the full opposition defence (counter-statement, evidence, opposition hearing) for the rare but costly scenario where a third party challenges your mark. Government fees are separate and the same across all plans.
You can upgrade to Protect at any time before the objection deadline. Talk to our expert team — they will advise on the objection grounds, the upgrade process, and the timeline. Upgrading is far less expensive than facing an objection unprepared and losing the filing fee.
The government fee is a statutory charge set by the Government of India — it is paid directly to the Office of the Controller General of Patents, Designs and Trade Marks, not to us. Current rates: ₹4,500 per class (Individual/Startup/MSME) or ₹9,000 per class (Company/LLP) for standard e-filing. These rates are fixed by the Registry, apply equally across all three plans, and are subject to change without notice.
An objection is raised by the Trademark Examiner during the examination stage — it is a department query on your application (on absolute or relative grounds). An opposition is filed by a third party — any person may oppose a mark after it is published in the Trade Marks Journal, within a 4-month window. Objections are common and handled quickly; oppositions are rarer but can take 1–3 years to resolve. Protect covers objections; Complete covers both.
It depends on what your business does. Trademark classes cover different categories of goods and services. If your brand spans multiple categories, you may need more than one class. Our AI recommends the right classes based on your business description; a qualified expert confirms before we file. Each additional class is charged separately — the same plan fee per class.
Expedited examination (CAVEAT) is an optional add-on with an extra government fee of ₹20,000 (Individual/MSME) or ₹40,000 (Company/LLP) per class. It places your application at the front of the examination queue — the examiner typically reviews it within about 1 month rather than 9–12 months. Important: expedited examination speeds up one stage only. The standard ~4-month opposition window and overall ~12–18 month registration timeline still apply. Whether it is worth the additional cost depends on your situation — ask an expert.
GST is not currently applied to the professional fee. Government fees are a statutory pass-through — GST does not apply to them. Confirm GST applicability with your accountant.
