The trade mark status in the Indian Trade Mark Registry website shows as “Send to Vienna Codification” when the trademark comprises figurative elements/logo and is being assigned a Vienna Code by the Indian Trade Mark Registry. As soon as a new trade mark application is filed, a Vienna Code is assigned if the trade mark comprises figurative elements/logo. The Vienna code is assigned based on the nature of the figurative element/logo. Such figurative elements/logos are codified according to the Vienna Agreement as per the link below:

Vienna codification is done by the Registry so that trademark searches can be conducted for artworks/logos. Once the Vienna codification is done, there is still a long way in the trade mark registration process such as formalities check, examination, publication and then registration.
