    Solution

    Section 13 of the Trade Marks Act, 1999, prohibits the registration of any word that is the commonly used and accepted name of a single chemical element or compound in respect of a chemical substance or preparation. It also bars registration of any word declared by the World Health Organization as an international non-proprietary name (INN) or deceptively similar to such a name. Any such registration is deemed to be wrongly made or remaining on the register and can be rectified accordingly.
