Can I use or register "Kavach"?

For the same or related goods, probably not. In class 1 (chemicals), class 2 (paints and coatings), class 3 (cosmetics and cleaning), class 5 (pharmaceuticals and health), class 6 (metal goods), class 9 (electronics and software), class 10 (medical devices), class 11 (lighting, heating and cooling), class 13 (firearms and fireworks), class 19 (building materials), class 22 (ropes, nets and tents), class 29 (meat, dairy and processed food), class 30 (staples, spices and confectionery), class 35 (advertising, business and retail), class 37 (construction, installation and repair) and class 44 (medical, beauty and agricultural services), 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 31 (fresh produce and agriculture), class 16 (paper, printing and stationery), class 21 (household and kitchenware) and class 20 (furniture), 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. "Kavach" appears in 16 classes; the other 29 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 7 similar names in the same classes (below).

Questions about Kavach

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.
