WHAT IS TRADEMARK

Trademark is like your brand’s signature—it’s a unique symbol, word, phrase, design, or even sound that distinguishes your goods or services from others in the market. 

In India, trademarks are governed by the Trade Marks Act, 1999, and registering one gives you exclusive rights to use it and legal protection against misuse.
