The process of renewing a trademark 

involves several steps. Trademark renewal can be registered online or offline with the trademark registry office located in Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata, Ahmedabad, and Chennai. Before the expiry of the trademark certificate, a period of six months is given to renew it. Failure to renew your trademark will result in its removal from the trademark journal by advertisement.

To renew a trademark, you must file an application form called form TR-R and attach necessary documents such as a registration certificate copy, trademark registration application form copy (TM-A), and the applicant's identity and address proof. If the renewal process is performed by an authorized person, they should submit power of attorney.

The registrar will verify the application and publish the trademark in the official gazette of the trademark journal if there are no objections. If the proposed name receives no objections, the registrar will issue a renewed certificate that is valid for the next ten years.
