Fresh Flowers for Puja – Sacred Floral Offerings for Religious Rituals

Trademark Class 31 under the NICE Classification covers raw and unprocessed agricultural, horticultural, and forestry products, including natural flowers, plants, leaves, fruits, and other plant-based materials.

Fresh Flowers such as marigold, rose, lotus, jasmine, and hibiscus are widely used in Hindu puja, temples, festivals, havan, weddings, vrat ceremonies, and daily worship. They are offered to deities as symbols of devotion, purity, gratitude, and spiritual beauty.

Since fresh flowers are natural, raw, and unprocessed plant products, they are correctly classified under Trademark Class 31.

If your business cultivates, bundles, packs, or supplies fresh flowers for religious use, your brand should be registered under Class 31 for trademark protection.

This class is essential for florists supplying temple flowers, agricultural flower growers, puja samagri vendors, and religious product distributors dealing in fresh floral offerings.
