Not sure of the exact words? Try AI Class SearchKeyword search only matches the words you type. AI Class Search reads what you actually sell and systematically maps it to the officially accepted Nice Classification terms & classes — surfacing the right classes a plain text search misses (e.g. “leather wallet” → “pocket wallets”, Class 18).
Consumer electronics in India are trademarked under Class 9, which covers a very wide range of devices — mobile phones, computers, headphones, chargers, cameras, televisions and electrical apparatus. Some appliances fall under Class 11 (lighting, heating, cooking, refrigeration). Electronics brands that also sell online or in stores add Class 35 for retail. Class 9 is one of the busiest trademark classes in India.
Most consumer electronics are filed under Class 9 in India — phones, computers, headphones, chargers, cameras, TVs and electrical/scientific apparatus. Some home appliances (lights, heaters, fridges, cooktops) fall under Class 11 instead.
Are home appliances Class 9 or Class 11?
It depends on the appliance. Class 9 covers electronic and electrical devices (audio, computing, measuring). Class 11 covers apparatus for lighting, heating, cooking, refrigeration and water supply — so a fridge, geyser or LED bulb is Class 11, while a laptop or earphone is Class 9.
Do electronics brands need Class 35?
If you sell electronics through your own stores or an online shop, Class 35 protects that retail/e-commerce service. The devices themselves remain under Class 9 (or 11).
Can a gadget or device brand be trademarked in India?
Yes. Electronics and gadget brand names and logos can be registered under Class 9 (and Class 11 for appliances) in India. Because Class 9 is heavily filed, a trademark search before launch is strongly recommended.
