Which of the following statements is true in case of a registered trade mark?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Section 31(1) of the Trade Marks Act, 1999 makes registration "prima facie evidence of the validity thereof" in all legal proceedings, and section 25(2) allows renewal "for a period of ten years" at a time. Both statements are therefore true.

The claim that a registered mark cannot be cancelled for non-use is false: section 47 allows removal of a mark from the register for non-use.
