Trademarks

A Trademark is any sign or any combination of signs used to distinguish the goods and/or services offered by one undertaking from those offered by another.

Origin And Development Of TM

During the British regime in India, the big merchants and businessmen who had established their mark in the market in respect of certain goods under the particular brand name, style, or design felt they should continue to be sold or traded under the same brand name, style or design and no other person shall be allowed to adopt that brand name, style or design.
The Government earlier enacted the Indian Trademark Act 1940, then Indian Trade & Merchandise Marks Act, 1958, and finally it was replaced by the Indian Trademark Act, 1999.
