Trade Mark Opposition
A position trademark ensures the protection of the mark on a particular object, which cannot be registered as a separate mark.
Section 21 of the Trademarks Act, 1999, provides that any person can file a notice of opposition to the Registrar. This includes companies, individuals, trusts and partnership firms. Thus, any aggrieved third party can raise opposition to trademark registration.
Such mark is of an appropriate size or proportion positioned on the specific area of the product, for example, in the middle of the product or represented as a silhouette
