The Form TM-A requires the attachment of supporting documents in PDF format. These documents typically include business registration proof, address proof, identity proof, and a copy of the trademark. Additionally, a Power of Attorney may be required if an agent is representing the applicant. [1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4]

Specific Documents to be Attched: [2, 2]

• Business Registration Proof: For companies, this would be the incorporation certificate or company registration certificate. [2, 2]
• Address Proof: For individuals, this could be a utility bill, bank statement, or rental agreement. For companies, it's the address proof of the applicant or authorized signatory. [2, 2, 5, 6]
• Identity Proof: For individuals, this could be Aadhaar, PAN, passport, or voter ID. For companies, it's the identity proof of the applicant or authorized signatory. [2, 2, 7]
• Copy of Trademark: This is a clear representation of the trademark, whether it's a logo or a wordmark, in a format like JPEG or PNG, says Bajaj Finserv. [7, 7, 8, 8]
• Power of Attorney (if applicable): If the application is filed through an agent, a power of attorney authorizing them to represent the applicant must be submitted. [3, 3, 7, 7]
