How to Register a Trademark in Class 5
Trademarks in India are registered class by class. To protect your brand in Class 5, a TM-A application is filed for that class with the Trade Marks Registry. If your business spans more than one class, each class is a separate application with its own government fee.
IPForte files your trademark within 48 hours of receiving documents. See the full process on our trademark registration page, or estimate the government and professional fees with the trademark cost calculator.
