Indicative. Classes 1 to 34 are goods and 35 to 45 are services. The class is decided by the specific goods or services described in your application, and the Registry examines that description, not the class number. A brand that makes a product and also sells it online usually needs both the goods class and class 35. We confirm the classes before filing — Rs 799 per class plus the government fee. The official class headings and the full alphabetical list are published by WIPO at wipo.int/classifications/nice.
How to use the result
Trade marks are registered per class, and protection extends only to the goods or services listed in the application. Choose the class of what you actually sell today and, where the plan is realistic, what you will sell within a year or two. One application can cover several classes; the government fee is charged per class (TM-A Rs 4,500 per class for individual / DPIIT startup / Udyam MSME; Rs 9,000 for all others).
Three patterns cover most Indian businesses. A product brand files in its goods class, and in class 35 if it sells online or through its own stores. A service business files in its service class: a restaurant is 43, a coaching institute 41, a software company 42 and often 9 for the app itself. An agency or consultancy is usually 35, with 42 for anything technical and 45 for anything legal.
Before filing, search the register for the same or a similar mark in the same classes: that is where objections and oppositions come from, and the search is far cheaper than the reply. Our trademark registration service does the search, confirms the classes and files Form TM-A.
Frequently asked questions
How many trademark classes are there in India?
45. Classes 1 to 34 are goods and classes 35 to 45 are services, following the Nice Classification, which the Indian Trade Marks Registry applies under Section 7 of the Trade Marks Act, 1999 and the Fourth Schedule to the Trade Marks Rules, 2017.
Can one application cover several classes?
Yes. One Form TM-A can list several classes. The government fee is charged per class: TM-A Rs 4,500 per class for individual / DPIIT startup / Udyam MSME; Rs 9,000 for all others. Our professional fee is Rs 799 per class.
Which class is software or an app in?
Downloadable software and mobile apps are goods in class 9. Software as a service, app development and IT services are class 42. A product company usually files both; a pure services company files class 42.
Which class is a restaurant or a food brand in?
A restaurant, cafe, cloud kitchen or catering service is class 43. A packaged food brand files in the goods class of the product: 29 for dairy, oils and processed foods, 30 for staples, snacks, sweets, tea and spices, 32 for drinks. Add class 35 if the brand sells through its own store or online.
Should I file in every class that might apply?
No. File where you use the mark now and where you will realistically use it in the next year or two. Each class adds a government fee, and a registration not used for five years can be removed on an application for non-use under Section 47 of the Trade Marks Act, 1999.
Does the class number alone decide my protection?
No. The Registry examines the goods or services you describe in the application, not just the class number. Describe what you actually sell; the class follows from that description, and a wrong class gives no protection for what you sell.
