Not sure of the exact words? Try AI Class Search Keyword search only matches the words you type.

Online stores and e-commerce businesses in India are trademarked under Class 35, which covers the bringing together and retail/online sale of goods for others. Class 35 protects the store, marketplace and the business itself — not the products. If you also manufacture or sell your own branded products, you additionally need the class of those goods (e.g. Class 25 for clothing, Class 9 for electronics). Most D2C brands and marketplaces file Class 35 together with their product class for complete protection in the Indian market.

Frequently Asked Questions

What trademark class is an online store in India?

An online store or e-commerce platform is filed under Class 35 in India, which covers retail and online sale services, marketplaces and aggregators. Class 35 protects your store brand; the products you sell are protected separately under their own goods classes.

Do I need a separate class if I sell my own products online?

Yes. Class 35 only protects the retail/e-commerce service. If you sell your own branded goods, you also file the class of those goods — for example Class 25 for clothing, Class 3 for cosmetics, or Class 9 for electronics. A D2C brand typically files both its product class and Class 35.

What is the difference between Class 35 and the product class?

Class 35 protects the act of selling and your store/marketplace brand. The product class (e.g. 18, 25, 30) protects the physical goods. A multi-brand marketplace that does not make products may only need Class 35, while a brand that makes and sells its own goods needs both.

Can a marketplace or aggregator brand be trademarked in India?

Yes. Marketplace, aggregator and e-commerce platform names are registrable under Class 35 in India. The name must be distinctive and not merely descriptive of the goods sold. Established Indian marketplaces hold Class 35 registrations that prevent copycat store names.
