What is Trademark Class 6?
Trademark is a brand or name associated with a service or product of an individual or company. It is a unique mark through which the consumers identify a product or service. It differentiates the product manufactured or service provided by an individual or an entity.
In India, trademarks are regulated under the Trademarks Act, 1999 (‘Act’) and Trade Marks Rules, 2017 (‘Rules’). When a trademark is registered under the Act, it is protected from infringement which means that a third party cannot use the registered trademark for their products or services without authorized permission.
A trademark is a legally protected symbol, logo, word, or design that distinguishes a product or service from its competitors. It’s a way for businesses to identify their goods or services and build brand recognition, giving them exclusive rights to that mark.
