Correct, trademark takes time to get registered, as you have applied for it and your trademark is approved by the department then you can use symbol “™” on the right side top, this shows that you have applied for trademark registration and once you will get the registration you can use “®” on the right side corner of your trademark. Further, as far as you are concerned with the name of your partnership firm and your relative’s companies name now you cannot do anything, as you were having registered partnership firm and he got the name approval from Registrar of company, the only solution you have is that you can go for Limited liability partnership (LLP), may be you will get the same name under LLP Act, 2008. If you want to incorporate a LLP you can hire a Wazzeer and we can help you in incorporation of LLP, or you can simply go for new name if you want a private limited company and intimate all your vendors and concerned business contacts that now you have converted your partnership firm to a Private Limited with another name.
