A reply to the objection has to be filed before the Registrar within one month from the date of receipt of the examination report.

Can a reply for Objection be filed after the expiry of the prescribed time limit?

When a reply is not filed within one month from the publishing of examination report then the application will be considered abandon and no further filing of reply will be allowed.

Do I need to stop using the TM mark for my Trademark when a Trademark Objection Report is issued?

No, the applicant of the trademark does not need to stop using the TM sign. By way of issuing the Examination Report, the Registry does not compel to stop the applicant from using the TM sign next to the Brand Name or Logo.

What is the step after the application is published in the Journal?

The application, when it is accepted by the Registry, is published in a journal for a period of 4 months and is open for opposition by Third Party. After completion of 4 months, where no opposition by third party is received, the Registration Certificate of the trademark is issued by the Registrar.

It is always advisable to contest the rejected trademark or apply for a new trademark application, as the case may be. Trademark registration is mandatory for taking legal action against infringers.
