What a Trademark Represents for Your Business?

A trademark protects a brand's visible identity. This includes business names, logos, slogans, symbols, and service identifiers. The mark belongs to the owner for exclusive commercial use across approved categories once registered.

A registered mark prevents unauthorised usage and strengthens brand recognition in competitive markets. We believe that trademark registration becomes a long-term business asset rather than a short-term formality for companies.

Who Can Apply for a Trademark?

Trademark ownership remains open to many business forms:

  • Individuals and freelancers
  • Startups and early-stage founders
  • Sole proprietors
  • Partnership firms and LLPs
  • Private limited companies
  • Foreign businesses operating in India

First Startup assists each applicant type with the correct documentation and filing approach.

Types of Trademarks You Can Register

Word Marks

These protect brand names, product names, and business titles without design elements.

Logo and Device Marks

These cover visual brand elements such as logos, icons, and unique graphic layouts.

Service Marks

Service providers use these marks for branding across professional services.

Non-Conventional Marks

Sound marks and unique identifiers fall under this category when distinctiveness is established.

Trademark Classes Explained

Trademark protection applies within defined classes based on the Nice Classification system.

Goods Classes (1–34)

These apply to manufacturing, trading, and product-based businesses.

Service Classes (35–45)

These apply to service providers across consulting, technology, education, logistics, and professional services.

Selecting the correct class directly affects the brand protection scope. First Startup reviews this carefully before filing.
