Know Your Registry
Mumbai Is the Head Office of India's Trade Marks Registry
Unlike most cities, which are simply covered by one of five regional branch offices, Mumbai houses the actual head office of the Trade Marks Registry, under the Controller General of Patents, Designs & Trade Marks (CGPDTM). Applicants based in Mumbai file directly with this head office — the same office that anchors the entire national trademark database.
Head Office
Mumbai Office Jurisdiction Covers:
- Maharashtra (including Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur, Nashik)
- Madhya Pradesh
- Chhattisgarh
- Goa
Trade Marks Registry, Boudhik Sampada Bhavan, S.M. Road, Antop Hill, Mumbai – 400037.
What Head Office Status Means for You
Filing from Mumbai does not speed up examination timelines, but it does mean your application is processed at the same office that maintains the master Register of Trade Marks for the entire country.
We prepare and file your application correctly against this jurisdiction, whether your business sits in South Mumbai, the western suburbs, or Navi Mumbai.
Mumbai's Business Landscape
Why Mumbai Businesses Can't Skip Trademark Protection
Mumbai is India's financial capital — home to the Bombay Stock Exchange, the National Stock Exchange, and the Reserve Bank of India's headquarters. It's also the country's entertainment capital, with film and OTT production houses whose brand value rests almost entirely on protected names, titles, and logos.
Add to that Mumbai's wholesale textile and jewellery trade, its fintech and startup ecosystem centred around Bandra Kurla Complex, and its role as an export gateway through JNPT port, and it becomes clear why an unregistered brand name is a real liability here — competitors and counterfeiters move fast in a market this large.

Enforcement Advantage
Why Registering in Mumbai Also Means Stronger Enforcement
A trademark is only as useful as your ability to act on it. Mumbai-based brand owners have a practical advantage here: the Bombay High Court is one of India's most active courts in intellectual property matters, regularly hearing urgent applications for injunctions against infringement and counterfeiting.
A registered trademark is what makes that legal route available to you in the first place — without registration, you're limited to slower, harder-to-prove passing-off claims.
- ✓ File for urgent injunctions against counterfeit sellers
- ✓ Stronger legal standing than an unregistered "passing-off" claim
- ✓ Useful for marketplace takedown requests on Amazon, Flipkart, and Meesho
- ✓ Foundation for Madrid Protocol filings if you export through JNPT
Why It Matters
What Registration Protects for You
Protects Media & Brand Names
Production houses, show titles, and app names built in Mumbai's media industry rely on trademark protection to prevent unauthorised use.
Secures Marketplace Listings
D2C and export brands need a registered mark to list confidently on e-commerce platforms and respond to counterfeit sellers.
Builds a Transferable Asset
A registered mark can be licensed, franchised, or sold — turning your brand identity into a real business asset, not just a name.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions on Trademark Registration in Mumbai
Is Mumbai the head office of the Trade Marks Registry?
Yes. Mumbai houses the head office of the Trade Marks Registry under the Controller General of Patents, Designs & Trade Marks, and its jurisdiction covers Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, and Goa.
Do I need to visit the trademark office in Mumbai in person?
No. Filing, examination replies, and status tracking are all handled online. A physical visit is rarely required unless you are specifically called for an in-person hearing.
Does filing from Mumbai make registration faster?
Not necessarily. Filing timelines are largely standardised across all five regional offices; head office status affects where your file is examined, not how quickly it moves through the process.
What is the total cost to register a trademark in Mumbai?
For a single class, the government fee is ₹4,500 for individuals, MSMEs, and startups, plus our ₹1,999 professional fee — a total of approximately ₹6,499, with no hidden charges.
Can a business in Pune or Nagpur also file through the Mumbai office?
Yes. The Mumbai head office covers all of Maharashtra, so applicants from Pune, Nagpur, Nashik, and other Maharashtra cities are examined by the same office as Mumbai-based applicants.
Why does the Bombay High Court matter for a Mumbai trademark owner?
The Bombay High Court is known for actively hearing urgent intellectual property matters, including injunctions against counterfeiters. A registered trademark is what gives you standing to pursue that route quickly.
