Osmania University Arts College joins league of architectural giants, gets trademarked structure honour
Arts College becomes the third building in India to receive this prestigious recognition after Mumbai’s Taj Mahal Hotel and Bombay Stock Exchange
Hyderabad: Osmania University’s iconic Arts College building has achieved the rare honour of becoming a trademarked structure — joining the league of architectural giants such as the Empire State Building, Eiffel Tower, Sydney Opera House, and closer to home, Mumbai’s Taj Mahal Hotel and Bombay Stock Exchange.
With this, OU Arts College becomes the third building in India to receive this prestigious recognition. The trademark certificate, officially registered on April 19, 2025, was formally handed over by Founder of Resolute4IP, Trademark Attorney Subhajit Saha to OU Vice Chancellor Prof Kumar Molugaram.
Terming the achievement a “historic milestone in OU’s legacy,” Prof Molugaram remarked that the trademark not only honors the building’s architectural grandeur and heritage but also elevates the brand image of OU on the global stage.
“This recognition ensures that the building’s legacy is preserved and protected. It is a proud moment for every OU alumnus across the world,” he said.
