ট্রেডমার্ক লাইসেন্স চুক্তি: এটা কি

A trademark license agreement lets another business use your trademark on agreed terms while you remain the owner. This draft grants a non-exclusive license for a defined purpose and period, records the royalty or fee, and requires the licensee to keep to the quality you approve. Quality control is what keeps the licensee's use connected to your brand in law.

আপনার যখন এই নথির প্রয়োজন হবে

  • You are appointing a franchisee or distributor who will trade under your brand name.
  • A manufacturer will produce goods carrying your mark under your supervision.
  • Your trademark is owned by a founder or holding company and the operating company needs permission to use it.
  • You are allowing a partner to use your logo on a co-branded product or event for a fixed period.

এটি কী কভার করে

  • The effective date and the names of the licensor (trademark owner) and the licensee.
  • A description of the trademark, including its registration number.
  • A non-exclusive grant to use the mark solely for the stated permitted use.
  • The term of the license in months from the effective date, unless ended earlier.
  • The royalty or fee terms agreed between the parties.
  • A quality control clause requiring use only in the approved manner and quality, and barring use that harms the owner's reputation or the mark's distinctiveness.

কিভাবে এটি পূরণ করবেন, স্বাক্ষর করবেন এবং ব্যবহার করবেন

  1. Confirm the registration number, the classes covered and that the registration is current, and describe the permitted use precisely, including products, territory and channels.
  2. Settle the money terms: a fixed fee, a percentage royalty, minimum payments, payment dates and how sales will be reported.
  3. Fill in the form on this page and check the preview against what was agreed.
  4. Have an advocate review the agreement, because this draft has no termination, inspection, infringement or post-term clauses, and an exclusive arrangement would need different wording from this non-exclusive grant.
  5. Pay stamp duty as applicable in your state and have authorised signatories of both parties sign, ideally before witnesses.
  6. Consider recording the licensee as a registered user with the Trade Marks Registry, and keep samples and approvals as proof of quality control during the term.

সংযুক্ত করার বা সঙ্গে রাখার জন্য নথি

  • Copy of the trademark registration certificate or online record.
  • Brand guidelines or approved artwork showing how the mark may be used.
  • Product specifications or quality standards the licensee must meet.
  • Board resolutions or authority letters for the signatories.

এর পেছনের আইন

The Trade Marks Act, 1999 allows a registered proprietor to permit others to use the mark. Use by a licensee counts as permitted use where the owner's consent is given in a written agreement and the licensee keeps to its conditions, which supports the owner against a later non-use challenge. The Act also provides for recording a licensee as a registered user, which is optional. The agreement is a contract under the Indian Contract Act, 1872. Stamp duty depends on the state, and royalties may attract GST and tax deduction at source, so check with your accountant.

এড়ানোর জন্য সাধারণ ভুল

  • Granting a license without any real quality control, which can weaken the mark and the owner's position.
  • Describing the permitted use loosely, so the licensee expands into products or regions never intended.
  • Letting the term expire without a written renewal while the licensee carries on using the mark.
  • Licensing a mark whose registration has lapsed or which is registered in a different class from the licensed goods.

ট্রেডমার্ক লাইসেন্স চুক্তি: প্রায়শই জিজ্ঞাসিত প্রশ্ন

Is it compulsory to register a trademark license in India?

No. Recording a licensee as a registered user under the Trade Marks Act is optional. An unrecorded license is still valid between the parties, and use by the licensee still counts as use of the mark by the owner if the owner's consent is in a written agreement and the licensee follows its conditions. Recording can help as public evidence of the arrangement in disputes.

What is the difference between an exclusive and a non-exclusive trademark license?

Under a non-exclusive license, as in this draft, the owner can use the mark and license others too. An exclusive license promises that nobody else, sometimes not even the owner, will use it in the agreed field or territory. If you need exclusivity, the agreement must say so expressly.

Can a trademark licensee file an infringement case?

Generally the right to sue for infringement belongs to the registered proprietor. Under section 53 of the Trade Marks Act, 1999, a licensee who is not recorded as a registered user cannot file an infringement case, whatever the agreement says. A registered user can sue in its own name under section 52, subject to any agreement between the parties, but must make the proprietor a defendant. Agree in writing who will act against infringers and who pays the costs.

Is GST payable on trademark royalty?

Permitting the use of intellectual property is generally treated as a supply of services, so GST is usually charged on royalty or license fees. Tax may also need to be deducted at source by the licensee. Rates and rules change, so confirm the position with your chartered accountant before invoicing.

Does a trademark license have to be in writing?

For the licensee's use to count as permitted use under the Trade Marks Act, 1999, yes. Section 2(1)(r) covers use by a person who is not a registered user only where it is with the registered proprietor's consent in a written agreement and follows its conditions. Section 48(2) then treats permitted use as use by the owner, which helps defend the mark against a non-use challenge.

How do I record a licensee as a registered user?

Under Section 49 of the Trade Marks Act, 1999, the registered proprietor and the proposed user apply jointly to the Registrar, with the written agreement or an authenticated copy and an affidavit by the proprietor giving details such as the degree of control and the period of use. The application is made on Form TM-U, and the official fee is listed on the IP India Forms and Fees page.

Can a licensee who is not a registered user sue for infringement?

No. Section 53 of the Trade Marks Act, 1999 says a permitted user who is not a registered user has no right to institute infringement proceedings. A registered user can, under Section 52, subject to any agreement between the parties, sue in its own name and must join the proprietor as a defendant. Agree in the license who will act against infringers.
