Which Registry office handles Puducherry?
Applications from Puducherry (Puducherry (UT)) are handled by the Trade Marks Registry, Chennai, which covers Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Puducherry and Lakshadweep. Jurisdiction depends on your principal place of business.
You never need to visit: filing, replies and hearings are done online, and we track your application until registration.
Brand names in Tamil
Many Puducherry businesses use a name in Tamil. A mark written in Tamil script can be registered as it is. The Registry requires a transliteration and translation (in English or Hindi), which we prepare. If you use the name in both Tamil and English, filing both versions gives you wider protection.
Also protect your logo: the name and the logo can be filed together or as two separate applications. We advise which gives you better protection for your budget.
