While trademark pending in objections someone else registered it


10-Aug-2023 (In Trademark & Copyright Law)
I had filed for trademark of my logo in 2014, which was objected by two companies-"Company A" and "Company B". Since then I am in the process of putting up my replies to the Registrar to get it registered. Now I come across a "Company X" who is my competitor who used my logo with minor changes to troll/humour me. Can I sue them for Trademark infringement, as even today my trademark status stands Objected ?

Please clarify if the Trade Mark is objected by the Trade Mark Registry or opposed by the opposite Party.

Further, you can sue a company for passing off depending upon the proof of first use. However, it depends upon the degree of similarity among the logos. Thus, it is recommended to approach either us or any ip expert.
