One of the significant changes brought by the Trade Marks Rules,
2017, was the removal of the extension provision in leading
evidence in support of opposition/application. However, the
Intellectual Appellate Board (IPAB) has recently interpreted the
amended rules and held that the operation of rule 45(2) is not
automatic as there exists a provision under section 131 of the
Trade Marks Act, 1999, which empowers the Registrar of Trade Marks
to extend the time period for actions for which no specific time
limit has been provided and filing of evidence in support of the
opposition is one such action.
