Ipad pro 11 inch has a black smudge spot on the screen

Hey i have recently bought a ipad pro 11 inch about 3 months back. A week ago i noticed a black smudge spot on the screen. It is only visible when the screen is turned off or with dark images. I tried wiping with microfiber cloth but it didn't go away and the spot seems to collect more fingerprint than the rest. Does ipad pro has some kind of special coating ? But 3 months is too little time for it to rub off

iPad Pro, iOS 13

Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of the nearest Apple Store to have the device examined. They will explain your options from there.
