ALTERATION OF ADDRESS IN REGISTER. -(1) A registered proprietor or a registered user of a trade mark, the address or whose principal place of business in India or whose address in his home country, as the case may be, is changed so that the entry in the register is rendered incorrect, shall forthwith request the Registrar on Form TM-34 to make the appropriate alteration of the address in the register, and Registrar shall alter the register accordingly if he is satisfied in the matter.

(2) A registered proprietor or a registered user of a trade mark, whose address for service in India entered in the register if changed, whether by discontinuance of the entered address or otherwise, so that entry in the register is rendered incorrect, shall forthwith request the Registrar on Form TM-50 to make the appropriate alteration of the address in the register, and the Registrar shall alter the register accordingly if he is satisfied in the matter.

(3) A registered proprietor or a registered user of a trade mark the address of whose principal place of business in India 1[* * *] or whose address for service in India is altered by a public authority, so that the changed address designates the same premises as entered in the register, may make the aforesaid request to the Registrar on Forms TM-34 orTM-50, as the case may be, and if he does so he shall leave therewith a certificate of the alteration given by the said authority.

(5) In case of the alteration of the address of a person entered in the register as the address for service in India of more than one registered proprietor or registered user of trade marks, the Registrar may, on proof that the said address is the address of the applicant and if satisfied that it is just to do so, accept an application from that person on Form TM-50, amended so as to suit the case, for the appropriate alteration of the entries of his address as the address for service in the several registrations, particulars of which shall be given in the Form and may alter the entries accordingly.

(6) All applications under this rule on Form TM-50 shall be signed by the registered proprietor or registered user, as the case may be, or by an agent expressly authorised by him for the purpose of such an application unless in exceptional circumstances the Registrar otherwise allows.
