Good to know
More about Expedited Trademark Fast-Track Registration
What is Expedited Filing?
Expedited Filing is a government scheme that allows a trademark application to be processed on priority. The main benefit is that the Registrar commits to issuing the Examination Report (Objection) within a significantly reduced timeline.
This option needs the expedited examination fee (Form TM-M) but is ideal for startups needing fast IP security for funding, licensing, or major product launches.
Expedited Government Fee
The standard fee is ₹4,500 (individual, startup or small enterprise) or ₹9,000 (others) per class, by e-filing. For Expedited Filing, this fee increases significantly:
- Individual/Startup
- ₹20,000 per class (Form TM-M)
- Company/Firm
- ₹40,000 per class (Form TM-M)
Who is Eligible?
The scheme is open to all applicants, but generally favored by those needing urgency:
- Startups
- Needing IP for immediate funding rounds or licensing.
- Mergers/Acquisitions
- Where legal transfer is time-bound.
- International Filings
- Using the India filing date for foreign applications.
- Litigation Risk
- To quickly secure registration when a competitor is active.
- General Filing
- Any applicant willing to pay the extra fee.
Questions
Frequently asked
Something else on your mind? Call the office - it is always the same number.
Does Expedited Filing guarantee final registration?
No. Expedited Filing only fast-tracks the Examination process. If an objection or opposition occurs, those steps still take normal legal time, but you get to the dispute stage much faster.
What is the main benefit of the expedited route?
The main benefit is the early issuance of the Examination Report. This allows you to resolve any major legal hurdles early on, giving you greater confidence to invest in branding and marketing.
Can I convert a regular application to expedited?
Yes, you can file a separate application (Form TM-M) requesting the Registrar to convert your regular application to an expedited one by paying the differential fee.
