The record shows that “IDFC” is a live Principal Register service mark owned by AGENCE FRANÇAISE DE DÉVELOPPEMENT, a French company, and it is currently active. The only surviving claim is in International Class 041 for “providing on‑line publications in the nature of brochures in the field of development finance” (including publication of brochures relating to development finance); the earlier claims in Classes 035 and 036 for public‑relations, business consultancy, lobbying, financing and brokerage services have been cancelled under Section 8. Because the surviving claim is limited to online brochure‑type publications about development finance, a similar name used for those kinds of financial‑education or informational materials would raise the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated fields would be farther from the scope shown. The record does not give the owner blanket control over every possible use of the word “IDFC.” The most recent meaningful event is the July 16 2022 notice that the registration was accepted and renewed for its first ten‑year term. No opposition, cancellation or court activity appears in the history, so there is no visible enforcement signal. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a comparable name in the same niche of development‑finance publications.
Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.
The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
