may renew the registration without removing the mark from the register.
27.
Whenever after the expiry of the said period of one month such fees have
not been paid, the Registrar may remove the mark from the register as
of the date of the expiration of the last registration, but may upon payment
of the renewal fee upon Form TM5, together with the additional fee, restore
the mark to the register if satisfied that it is just so to do and upon
such conditions as he may think fit to impose.
28.
Where the application for the renewal of the trade mark is not made by
the registered proprietor, the Registrar, before taking any further steps,
may require the applicant to furnish within two months evidence at his
authority to make such application and in the absence of such evidence
may return the application and treat it as not having been received.
29.
Where a trade mark has been removed from the register, the Registrar shall
cause to be entered in the register a record of such removal and its cause
and shall advertise the fact in the Patent Journal.
30.
(1) Upon the renewal of the registration, notice on Form TM5 to that effect
shall be sent to the registered proprietor at his registered address or
at the address given on Form TM5, as the case may be.
(2) Thereafter, the renewal shall be advertised forthwith by the Registrar
in the Patent Journal.
31. Assignment or transmission
[Sections 39 and 40]
Where a person becomes entitled by assignment or transmission to a
registered trade mark, he may make application to the Registrar on Form
TM6 to register his title and if the application is not made to register
the assignment or transmission within 12 months of its effective date,
a penalty specified in Schedule 1 to these regulations shall be payable
in respect of each period of 12 months or portion thereof following the
