Furniture trademarks in India are covered under Class 20, which includes furniture, mirrors, picture frames, and articles of wood, cork, reed, and similar materials. Mattresses and pillows fall under Class 20 as well, while floor coverings like carpets and rugs are in Class 27. Furniture retail services fall under Class 35. India's furniture industry — including both traditional and modular furniture — has seen rapid growth, making brand protection increasingly important for manufacturers and retailers.
Furniture trademarks in India are filed under Class 20, covering all types of furniture — wooden furniture, metal furniture, modular furniture, office furniture, bedroom sets, sofas, and chairs. Mattresses and pillows are also in Class 20.
Is wooden furniture the same class as metal furniture in India?
Yes. Both wooden and metal furniture are protected under Class 20 in the Indian trademark system. The material does not change the class. Class 20 covers furniture of all materials including wood, metal, plastic, and cane.
What class is a furniture retail store or interior design service in India?
Furniture retail and showroom services fall under Class 35. Interior design and decoration services fall under Class 42. If you manufacture and sell furniture, you need Class 20 for the product and Class 35 for the retail business. Interior designers should file under Class 42.
What trademark class are carpets and rugs in India?
Carpets, rugs, mats, and floor coverings are classified under Class 27, not Class 20. This is a common mistake — furniture goes in Class 20 but floor coverings have their own class. Wall hangings of textile material also fall under Class 27.
