Costs vary based on portfolio size, number of jurisdictions, and services required. Basic management for small portfolios starts from ₹25,000-50,000 annually. Comprehensive management for large multi-jurisdictional portfolios can range ₹2-10 lakhs annually. We offer customized packages—pay only for services your business needs. Consider it investment protection—proper management prevents costly losses from missed renewals or undetected infringements.

Minimum annual comprehensive review recommended, with quarterly monitoring for active enforcement. Additionally, conduct reviews when launching new products/services, entering new markets, during mergers or acquisitions, after significant business model changes, or when competitors launch similar offerings. Regular reviews ensure portfolio remains aligned with evolving business strategy and market conditions.

Most jurisdictions offer grace periods (typically 6 months) with additional fees. If grace period expires, rights are lost and registration cancelled. Competitors can potentially register your mark. Re-registration isn’t guaranteed—someone else might file first. Patent rights once lost cannot be restored. This is why professional management is crucial—we maintain comprehensive deadline tracking preventing such expensive losses.

Not necessarily. Strategic approach considers actual business presence and revenue, likelihood of expansion, enforcement environment and costs, risk of counterfeiting or infringement, and budget constraints. We prioritize key markets—home country, major revenue sources, manufacturing locations, and high-risk markets. Madrid Protocol and PCT facilitate cost-effective international protection without filing everywhere immediately.

We implement continuous monitoring through trademark watch services flagging similar filings, marketplace surveillance on e-commerce platforms, customs recordation preventing counterfeit imports, and competitor intelligence tracking. Upon detection, we send cease-and-desist notices, file oppositions or cancellation proceedings, negotiate settlements or licensing, and litigate when necessary. Early detection through systematic monitoring prevents infringements from becoming established market presences.

Absolutely. Investors and acquirers conduct thorough IP due diligence. Well-managed portfolios with clear ownership, no gaps or conflicts, documented protection strategy, and evidence of enforcement significantly enhance valuations. We prepare IP due diligence reports, clean up ownership and documentation issues, demonstrate revenue potential through licensing, and position IP as key business asset. Strong IP portfolios can increase exit valuations by 20-40%.
