The trademark classification is done under 45 classes in the fourth schedule of the trademark act. All the goods and services available in India are listed under the classes. Apart from the overall 45 classes the items and services are divided further into a number of sub and sub-sub classes. Also a good or service classified under one category is explicitly debarred from using a trademark which a good or service of same category has already used. However, the same trademark can be exclusively used for a good or service listed in another category of the classes. In case of an absolutely new line of good or service, a trademark registrar enjoys the power to act upon his discretion and decide the class of the given product or service.
