Questions
Corporate questions we are asked
Usually yes — registration is not what makes an agreement binding. But some documents must be registered before a court will even look at them, including most transfers of land and buildings worth over ₹100. And if the correct stamp duty was not paid, the court can hold the document back until it is.
Not to have rights. A name you have used honestly in business is already protected, and you can stop a copycat by suing for passing off. Registering it makes that much easier, because then you sue for infringement without first having to prove that people know your name.
