GI registration, platform-coordinated – one transparent fee, managed end-to-end with the attorney your producer group authorises.
All-inclusive fee, Govt fee and GST included
Years of protection, once your GI is registered
Months, the typical registration timeline
Flat fee – no entity-type price difference
Most Indian MSMEs are unfamiliar with GI law – and it works quite differently from trademark, copyright, design, or patent.
Protects your brand name or logo – owned by one business.
Protects original creative works – owned by one creator.
Protects how a product looks – owned by one applicant.
Protects how something works – owned by one inventor.
Protects a product tied to a region – owned collectively by a producer community, never by one individual.
A GI is a name or sign used on products that come from a specific place, where a quality, characteristic, or reputation is essentially due to that geographical origin – think Darjeeling Tea, Basmati Rice, or Kanchipuram Silk. Registering one protects your region's shared heritage from being copied, diluted, or misused by producers with no real connection to it.
Under Section 11 of the GI Act, 1999, a GI can only be registered by an association of persons, producers, or an organisation or authority representing producers' interests – not by a single individual or business. This plan is built for producer groups, cooperatives, and organisations filing on behalf of their region's producers.
One plan, one transparent fee – the same price for every applicant group, since the GI Rules do not offer an entity-based fee concession for this filing.
The price you pay today is the price you pay. If discrepancies, objections, or a hearing arise during registration, it's handled within your existing fee – no stage-wise add-on, ever. This guarantee covers your fee; it does not guarantee that the GI will ultimately be registered, as that decision rests with the Registry.
Our pricing is simple and honest. Our one-time, all-inclusive fee is the only fee you will ever pay for every step in the package.
Most providers charge separately for the Statement of Case, filing, examination responses, and opposition proceedings – so the quoted "starting fee" rarely reflects what a full registration actually costs.
A thin or poorly evidenced Statement of Case is one of the most common reasons GI applications stall or face objections – a mistake that costs far more to fix later than to get right at filing.
A single, transparent ₹27,900 one-time payment – no hidden charges, no future surprises.
Your registration is managed end-to-end by our process team, together with the attorney your group authorises, including opposition support if it's ever needed.
Here's what each part of your plan is worth if billed separately elsewhere – and why our one-time fee comes out ahead. Estimates below are indicative, based on typical stage-wise charges for similar services; actual charges elsewhere vary.

We'd rather you buy this with a clear head than assume it's for everyone.
Every step below is included in your one-time fee.
Every stage is tracked on the platform, with your authorised IP attorney acting upon your written authorisation, from documentation through to your registration certificate.
We help your group compile the Statement of Case – the origin story, quality link, producer details, and supporting evidence the Registry requires.
Once documentation is ready, your authorised IP attorney prepares and e-files your application with the GI Registry in Chennai, upon your written authorisation, and you receive filing confirmation.
A consultative group of experts examines your application. Your authorised IP attorney handles any discrepancy responses upon your written authorisation, and our platform team coordinates with them on all Registry communication.
Once accepted, your application is published in the GI Journal, opening the window for any third-party opposition.
Interested parties may oppose within the notice period. If an opposition is filed, your authorised IP attorney handles the response upon your written authorisation, covered by the same one-time Platform & Professional Fee + GST. The outcome and timelines are as per Registry Schedule.
Once the Registrar is satisfied, your GI is entered in the Register and your Certificate of Registration is issued. As per the Geographical Indications Act, 1999, registration is valid for 10 years and can be renewed.
This is not merely a filing service – every stage above is tracked on the platform, and discrepancy responses and opposition support, where required, are undertaken by your authorised IP attorney upon your written authorisation, all covered by the same one-time Platform & Professional Fee + GST.
One one-time payment – no hidden charges, no future surprises at any stage.
Your registration is managed end-to-end by our process team, together with the attorney your group authorises.
If your application faces opposition, our response process is already covered – no stage-wise add-on.
Specialists who understand GI law specifically – not generalists applying trademark logic to it.
No entity-based price difference – the fee is identical for every producer group.
Renewable indefinitely, securing your region's heritage for generations of producers.
IP process management experience across all industries since 1997.
Encrypted platform with a secure payment gateway and process compliance throughout.
Already organised, with evidence gathered, and ready to move forward with a full application.
Growing exports or market reach for a regional product and want the legal protection to back it.
Supporting local producers and sponsoring a GI application on their behalf.
Representing traditional craft clusters whose heritage products need formal recognition.
One transparent fee. Every step covered - documentation to registration certificate.
