There is objection from the registrar of Trademark under section 9(1)(a) that the trademark which are devoid of any distinctive character, that is to say, NOT capable of distinguishing the goods and services of one person from of another persons.

Not an objection, that is a refusal of registration of trademark in the absence of any distinctive character in the trademark to distinguish the goods or services of one person from those of another person.
So, there is a need to reapply with a fresh but unique trademark for the goods or services of your company.

It would be better if you specifically engage a lawyer for this purpose otherwise this is clear indication then you are not going to get the trademark as desired.
