Mr. Maitra,
Every registered trademark has to be renewed once in every ten years from the date of filing of trademark and the fee for the renewal is Rs. 5000. The proprietor (the owner of the trademark) must pay the renewal fees before expiry of the term of ten years but not before 6 months from the date of expiry. If the renewal is done after the expiry but within 6 months then the fee will be Rs. 8000. If the renewal is done after 6 months of expiry but within 1 year, then the fee will be Rs. 10,000.

Mr. Maitra,
In case the trademark is not renewed it will be removed from the register but can be restored if a request is made within one year from the date of expiry or the date of last renewal. However, the applicant is required to pay additional fee for such renewal.

You can take help of any lawyer versed with such matters. As per the explaination of Nagaraja even if the time limit has passsed, it might be possible to re-register the trademark.
