Re: What is the difference between trade mark and Brand?
Replying to [curdrice]:Brand is a name you give to a product you sell to identify as your product.
Brand becomes a trade mark which can not be copied, through registration with Registrar of trade marks, and can not be copied.
Trade mark is available for different categories(In India, there are 34 categories), registration for each category is required, otherwise it can still be copied.
Examples
Rexona soap and Rexona Hawaii Chappal are different categories. No one can copy Rexona soap but Hawaii chappel is different category, hence can not be stopped.
Same for Amul milk products and Amul undergarments.
USHA brand, famous for Fans, Sewing machines is used by another bicycle tyre company, who won a case against Usha fans in Delhi High Court.
Similar sounding names can not be used, under passing off of registered trade mark.
COLGATE can not be copied by similar name like callgate, colgeate etc for passing off offence

Replying to [curdrice]:

googled in 2 minutes :

A trade mark protects any sign or symbol that allows your customers to tell you apart from your competitors. You can register a name, logo, slogan, domain name, shape, colour or sound.

The Brand Name a company-specific name for a particular product or service, usually used to differentiate that product or service from competitor offerings. French: nom de marque.

hope this helps to answer your question professionell !
