Shivchem Agro: 19 of 22 Trademark Applications Are Objected

Shivchem Agro Private Limited, referred to here as Shivchem Agro, disclosed 22 trademark applications for Class 5 goods, of which 19 are marked “Objected” by the Registrar of Trademarks. That is 86.36% of the listed applications; two have acceptance-and-advertised statuses and one remains under examination, with no entry shown as registered.

Why are Shivchem Agro’s trademark applications mostly objected?

Shivchem Agro’s disclosed trademark schedule shows that 19 of its 22 listed applications are objected under the Trade Marks Act, 1999. Each application is classified in Class 5, which the disclosure describes as covering pesticides, insecticides, weedicides, herbicides, fungicides, disinfectants, preparations for killing weeds and preparations for destroying vermin.

The 86.36% proportion arises by counting the individual statuses in the 22-entry schedule. Nineteen entries state “Objected,” one entry states “Under Examination,” one states “Accepted and Advertised,” and one states “Acceptance and Advertised.” The schedule describes all 22 entries as applications for registration, rather than completed trademark registrations.

The concentration is limited to the disclosed Class 5 schedule. Shivchem Agro’s prospectus does not state the grounds for any of the 19 objections, the date of the objections, or a timetable for addressing them. The current distribution can change only if the Registrar of Trademarks records a later status for an application.

Which Shivchem Agro brands have objected trademark applications?

Shivchem Agro has objected applications for one corporate colour mark and 18 word marks. The colour-mark application for “SHIVCHEM AGRO,” application number 6659840, is marked objected. The Registrar of Trademarks is identified as the issuing authority for that application and every other entry in the 22-application schedule.

The 18 objected word-mark applications are “AMBUSH,” “ATrax,” “BHOOMI-G,” “CARMAN,” “CHLOMATE-10G,” “FITCHEM,” “KILLBAN,” “KRIDHAN-4G,” “RAMBO,” “SMITE,” “TAICH,” “E MAX,” “GLIMMER,” “GLYELL,” “GRASS OUT,” “PARAMAX,” “PRIMA GOLD” and “TRIMMER.” These applications carry numbers from 6656826 to 6924312, although the disclosed numbering is not a continuous series.

The three entries not marked objected are identified individually in the schedule. “AZURA GOLD,” application number 6892046, is marked “Accepted and Advertised”; “PRIMA TOP,” application number 6892048, is marked “Acceptance and Advertised”; and “CARBAIN-3G,” application number 6923685, is marked “Under Examination.” The disclosure does not state that any of those three applications has proceeded to registration.

How concentrated is Shivchem Agro’s trademark-status exposure?

Shivchem Agro’s disclosed trademark-status exposure is concentrated because 19 of 22 Class 5 applications carry the same objected status. On an application-count basis, the objected group is 9.5 times the two applications with acceptance-and-advertised statuses and 19 times the single application under examination.

The pattern also differs by the application-number sets disclosed in the schedule. All six applications numbered from 6656826 through 6659840 are objected, including the corporate colour mark. Among the six applications numbered 6892044 through 6892049, four are objected and two have acceptance-and-advertised statuses. The 10 applications numbered from 6923682 through 6924312 comprise nine objected entries and CARBAIN-3G, which is under examination.

The schedule does not identify sales, products or revenue associated with individual brand names. It therefore permits a count-based comparison of application statuses, but not a measure of the commercial importance of an objected name relative to an application with a different status.

How do trademark applications differ from Shivchem Agro’s product registrations?

Shivchem Agro distinguishes its Class 5 trademark applications from registrations for insecticide products. The company states that it has obtained necessary certificates of registration under Section 9(4) of the Insecticides Act, 1968 for products manufactured by it, where applicable. Those registrations concern products, whereas the 22 intellectual-property entries are applications under the Trade Marks Act, 1999.

The Section 9(4) product registrations are stated to be in the name of Shivchem Agro Private Limited. Shivchem Agro says it is taking necessary steps to have those registrations changed to Shivchem Agro Limited in due course. The disclosure does not provide the number of Section 9(4) registrations, their product names or a completion date for the stated name-change process.

Shivchem Agro also lists operating licences under the Insecticides Act, 1968 for selling, stocking, exhibiting for sale or distributing insecticides in Assam, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Odisha, West Bengal, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. The Uttar Pradesh licence is valid to March 19, 2028, but the company states that the Uttar Pradesh establishment was not operational as of the red herring prospectus date.

What other approvals remain pending for Shivchem Agro?

Shivchem Agro lists two material licences or approvals for which it had applied: a Jharkhand licence to sell, stock, exhibit for sale or distribute insecticides, and a no-objection certificate or approval from the Chief Fire Officer for its manufacturing unit. The Jharkhand application number is 2503472130, while the fire-approval application number is 070432523000016.

The company states that its fire-fighting scheme received approval through a memorandum dated October 10, 2025, bearing Memo No. FS/2025/1481. However, Shivchem Agro says the no-objection certificate or approval from the Chief Fire Officer remained awaited. This pending approval is separate from the company’s trademark-application statuses and separate from its Haryana State Pollution Control Board consents.

The prospectus also identifies two approvals for which Shivchem Agro was yet to apply: a certificate of enrolment under the Andhra Pradesh Tax on Professions, Trades, Callings and Employments Act, 1987, and a registration certificate as a commercial establishment under the Bihar Shops and Establishment Act, 1953. These items show that the intellectual-property schedule is one part of a wider approvals disclosure.

Conclusion

Shivchem Agro’s trademark disclosure records a clear status imbalance within its 22 Class 5 applications: 19 are objected, two have acceptance-and-advertised statuses and one is under examination. The applications cover a corporate colour mark and 21 word marks, while the prospectus does not show a registered status for any of the 22 listed entries.

The next relevant update is any later Registrar of Trademarks status for the 19 objected applications, CARBAIN-3G, AZURA GOLD or PRIMA TOP, because the prospectus gives no objection grounds or resolution dates. Shivchem Agro’s disclosed plan to move applicable Section 9(4) product registrations into the name of Shivchem Agro Limited, and the awaited Chief Fire Officer approval, are separate matters to monitor.
