A trademark is known to be a unique expression associated with a product or service that differentiates it from the rest. Such a unique expression can be a word, slogan, photograph, logo, graphic, color combination, sound, etc. A trademark that is registered will have a validity period of ten years. After ten years, you will have to renew it in order to use it the same way you were using before with certain privileges. Also, you do not have to bother much if you get to forget the expiry date of your trademark as the prior notice will be issued at your registered office regarding the renewal of your trademark and so, you will be notified.
It is very common for the companies to forget to renew their trademark and hence, the registrar notifies them regarding the expiry date six months before expiration. After notification, if there is no response from your side and no payment for the trademark renewal fees, the registrar further issues a statement revealing that the respective trademark will be removed from the Trade Marks Journal.

Can people file for renewal of trademark after the expiry of trademark registration?
Surely, it is possible to file the renewal trademark application form even after the expiry of your trademark registration. You must file the renewal application within six months of the expiration date of your trademark. You can do this by filing TM-12 along with the designated late trademark renewal fees.
If you further delay more than six months after the expiry date of your trademark, you may fall into risk and can be subjected to deposit much extra fees and documentation. However, if the renewal process will not be completed within twelve months of the expiration of the trademark, your trademark will get abandoned which means it will be removed from the trademark register.
