Trademark Rectification
Remove or correct a wrongly registered trademark from the IP India Register
Here is the full trademark rectification process, end to end — every step and who handles what. Knowing the sequence up front helps you keep documents ready and avoid the back-and-forth that delays most filings.
How It Works
- 1
Grounds Assessment
We assess the grounds for rectification — non-use, wrong registration, descriptiveness, or clerical error.
- 2
Evidence Compilation
We gather prior use evidence, advertising material, sales data, and any misrepresentation proof for non-owner petitions.
- 3
Form TM-26 Filing
Petition is filed before the Registrar of Trademarks with the evidence and grounds.
- 4
Hearing
A hearing date is assigned. We present arguments and evidence before the Trade Marks Officer or Registry.
- 5
Order
The Registrar passes an order — rectifying, removing, or maintaining the trademark on the Register.
