Company name resemblance and undesirable name rules govern name availability and require approvals or consents before registration. Rules define when a proposed company name resembles too nearly an existing name by disregarding specified elements (company-type suffixes, plurality, letter case, spacing, punctuation, tenses, phonetic variants, domain elements, word order, articles, slight spelling variations, translations, place-name additions, and numeral changes) subject to consent exceptions. Distinct provisions list undesirable names including those prohibited by emblem law, conflicting trademarks without consent, offensive or misleading names, names implying different legal forms or government association, recent dissolved or struck-off names, regulated financial terms without regulator compliance, and descriptive names, with illustrative examples. Applicants must declare prior use and provide no-objection certificates; certain authoritative words require prior Central Government approval.
