Archak Das

Archak Das serves as a Trade Marks Associate, bringing a deep, hands-on understanding of the full intellectual property lifecycle. His practice focuses on the strategic management of trade mark portfolios across global jurisdictions, with particular experience in trade mark clearance, filing, prosecution, enforcement, and portfolio administration.

Archak has successfully managed complex trade mark clearance and filing operations, including conducting detailed availability searches, assessing registry and commercial risks, interpreting procedural requirements across different IP offices, and developing tailored filing strategies to protect brands from the outset. He also handles the practical realities of trade mark prosecution, guiding clients from the initial application stage through to the preparation of precise and legally sound responses to examination reports and office objections. His ability to address and resolve registry objections has helped clear the path for the successful registration of clients’ marks across multiple jurisdictions.

Beyond initial filings and prosecution, Archak has developed strong experience in trade mark enforcement and contentious brand protection across both traditional and digital environments. In the online space, he assists with rapid-response brand protection by monitoring e-commerce marketplaces, social media platforms, and domain registries to identify unauthorised use, counterfeit activity, deceptively similar marks, and potential cybersquatting. To address these risks, he assists in preparing cease-and-desist correspondence, platform-specific intellectual property complaints, online takedown notices, and other enforcement actions aimed at removing infringing content and protecting brand value.

Archak’s contentious trade mark experience also includes assisting in opposition and rectification matters before IP offices, including preparing pleadings, compiling evidentiary material, and navigating procedural requirements to protect clients’ brand identity and commercial position. His work reflects a strong understanding of both the legal and practical aspects of trade mark disputes, including the importance of early risk assessment, evidence strategy, and commercially sensible enforcement.

His intellectual property experience is further supported by a strong foundation in commercial law and emerging technology sectors. Having developed legal research, drafting, and contract management skills through experience with diverse organisations, including Khaitan & Co., SVF Entertainment & Hoichoi, Ryzer Wealth Corp, and Sinha & Company, Advocates, Archak approaches IP matters with a practical and commercial mindset. He is skilled in drafting and reviewing commercial agreements involving brand assets and intellectual property rights, ensuring that trade marks and related IP are appropriately protected within broader business arrangements.

In addition, Archak’s research and experience in technology-related legal issues, digital assets, and data protection frameworks enable him to assist clients with emerging IP challenges at the intersection of technology, brand management, online enforcement, and regulatory compliance.
