Can I use or register "OSWAL"?

For the same or related goods, probably not. In class 1 (chemicals), class 3 (cosmetics and cleaning), class 5 (pharmaceuticals and health), class 6 (metal goods), class 9 (electronics and software), class 17 (rubber and insulating materials), class 24 (textiles and fabrics), class 25 (clothing, footwear and headwear), class 30 (staples, spices and confectionery), class 35 (advertising, business and retail), class 36 (finance, insurance and real estate), class 37 (construction, installation and repair) 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 31 (fresh produce and agriculture), class 21 (household and kitchenware), class 44 (medical, beauty and agricultural services) and class 10 (medical devices), 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. "OSWAL" appears in 13 classes; the other 32 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 9 similar names in the same classes (below).

Questions about OSWAL

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.
