With reference to the trademark objection,

The registrar may object the application on two basic aspects.

# Trademark is very descriptive about its business.- SECTION 9

(For instance, if the business is publishing/journals, brand name should not be "Superb publishers, Excellent publishers" which is like describing the business or like probing their efficiency)

# Trademark is similar or same to the previous filed application.- SECTION 11

If the trademark application is objected, we should have to check the examination report and understand on what grounds it has been objected.

# Initially we should have to send a reply to the government with the affidavit.

( Affidavit??

Affidavit is the document prepared by us/attorney with all the proof of usage to show the government and request the registrar to accept and publish the application on journal).

# After the registrar will fix a date for the hearing, So that lawyers attend the hearing to satisfy the registrar with all the proof of usage and get it registered.

# We cannot surely say that the application will be accepted, it may be rejected too.

In case of rejection the application will go invalid.
