Can I use or register "FOSTER"?

For the same or related goods, probably not. In class 1 (chemicals), class 7 (machines and motors), class 16 (paper, printing and stationery), class 21 (household and kitchenware), class 30 (staples, spices and confectionery), class 32 (beverages, non-alcoholic), class 35 (advertising, business and retail) and class 41 (education and entertainment), a new application for an identical or confusingly similar name is likely to be objected to by the Registry under Section 11 of the Trade Marks Act, 1999, or opposed by the earlier applicant. Closely related classes, such as class 5 (pharmaceuticals and health), class 31 (fresh produce and agriculture), class 8 (hand tools) and class 11 (lighting, heating and cooling), carry the same risk.

For unrelated goods, often yes. The same word can be registered by different owners in different classes when the goods are unrelated and the earlier mark is not well known. "FOSTER" appears in 8 classes; the other 37 may still be open, subject to a search.

A small change rarely helps. Adding a word, changing a letter or using a logo does not avoid conflict on its own: marks are compared as a whole, by look, sound and idea. We already see 5 similar names in the same classes (below).

Questions about FOSTER

Is FOSTER a registered trademark?

FOSTER has been applied for and advertised in the Trade Marks Journal (9 applications, latest on 2 March 2026). Advertisement means the Registry accepted the application; it is registered only if no opposition succeeds within four months of the journal date. The journal does not record the later outcome, so check the live register before relying on it.

Who applied for the FOSTER trademark?

As advertised: Ventureway Startup Ecosystem Private Limited; Suzal Aqua Minerals PVT. LTD.; Proprietor of Laxmi Narayan Ashok Kumar; Indus Crop Care PVT.LTD.; Linkforce Marketing Private Limited; plus 4 individual applicants.

Can I register a trademark similar to FOSTER?

Not for the same or related goods in class 1, class 7, class 16, class 21, class 30, class 32, class 35, class 41: a confusingly similar name is likely to be refused or opposed. For unrelated goods it may be possible after a search. Ask for a free availability report before you file.

What does "advertised" mean? Read trademark status meanings, how long registration takes and how to run a trademark search.

Source and limits. Built from the Trade Marks Journal published by the Registrar of Trade Marks (a public record), issues from August 2021 onwards, as advertised and subject to transcription errors. The journal shows that an application was accepted and advertised; it does not show what happened afterwards (registration, opposition, withdrawal or abandonment), applications not yet advertised, or marks advertised before August 2021, so this is not the live register status. Applicants may ask for a correction or removal by writing to mehak@trademarkindia.pro. Information only, not legal advice and not a solicitation.
