Counterfeit listings under your brand. A competitor trading under a near-identical name. Someone who registered yourdomain.in before you thought to. Most of these end with the first letter, or with a takedown form. Very few need a court.
Pick the speed and depth that matches your need. Same quality, same CA team — only the timeline changes.

Marketplace takedowns and cease and desist notices carry no government fee. Where enforcement escalates into an opposition or rectification against the other side’s filing, the Form TM-O fee of ₹2,700 per class applies at actuals. Suits, injunctions and litigation are quoted individually after assessment — we do not price a court case off a list.

All fees and charges listed are indicative only and do not constitute a binding offer. Final amounts may vary depending on the volume of work and the complexity involved.
Is your registration current, is the mark actually in use in the class you are relying on, and is your own registration vulnerable to rectification. A notice from a proprietor who has not used a mark for five years comes back as a rectification petition.
For a marketplace listing, Amazon Brand Registry, Flipkart Brand Protection and the equivalents operate on your certificate and a form. Days, not months, at a fraction of the cost.
A notice that identifies your registration, sets out the infringing use specifically, states the statutory basis, and demands defined things by a defined date.
Where the other side has a pending application, the notice alone does not stop the Registry. It needs an opposition or rectification alongside, or you win the correspondence and lose the register.

Platform brand protection programmes turn around in days on your registration certificate and a form. Against a casual infringer it is usually the last move as well as the first.
It also covers an identical mark on similar goods, use against a well-known mark even for dissimilar goods, use in advertising contrary to honest practices, and use of your mark inside someone’s trade or business name.
Without registration, infringement is not available. You fall back on Section 27(2), which means proving goodwill, misrepresentation and damage from scratch — harder, slower, dearer.
A cease and desist from a proprietor with a lapsed or unused mark invites a rectification. That is worse than doing nothing and it is entirely avoidable.
A suit can be filed where YOU reside or carry on business, rather than where the defendant is. That changes the practical cost of enforcing considerably.
Do not ignore it and do not reply the same day. Check whether their mark is registered and in use, and whether Section 34 protects you as a prior user. If you were there first, you may be stronger than the letter suggests.
