PATENT
A patent is an exclusive legal right granted by the government to an inventor for a new invention, product, or process that offers a novel and useful solution to a problem.
It gives the patent holder the sole authority to make, use, sell, or distribute the invention for a limited period, usually 20 years from the date of filing (subject to renewal and maintenance).
A patent protects technical innovations and prevents others from copying, manufacturing, selling, or importing the invention without the inventor’s permission.
In return, the inventor publicly discloses the details of the invention, contributing to technological advancement and knowledge sharing.
Why Should Your Register Patent ?
Exclusive Rights: Registering a patent grants you the exclusive legal right to manufacture, use, and sell your invention. This prevents others from copying or using your patented invention without your permission.
Market Advantage: A patent gives you a competitive edge in the market by protecting your innovative product or process, allowing you to capitalize on your invention for a set period (typically 20 years).
Monetization Opportunities: With a patent, you can license your invention to others for royalties or sell it outright, creating a potential revenue stream.
Attract Investment: Patents can enhance the value of your business by demonstrating that you have protected intellectual property, which can make your company more attractive to investors and partners.
Legal Protection: A registered patent allows you to take legal action against anyone who infringes upon your invention. Without patent protection, you may have limited recourse.
Encourages Innovation: Registering a patent incentivizes innovation by providing legal protection in exchange for disclosing details of your invention, contributing to technological progress and knowledge sharing.
Global Protection: Patent registration can be extended to other countries, giving you protection in international markets, depending on the type of patent application (e.g., PCT - Patent Cooperation Treaty).
Why Can Apply For Patent ?
Individual Inventor(s): Any individual or group of individuals who have invented a new product, process, or solution can apply for a patent in their name.
Companies and Corporations: Businesses, whether they are startups, established companies, or multinational corporations, can apply for patents for inventions created by their employees, contractors, or researchers.
Research and Development Institutions: Universities, research organizations, or R&D centers that develop new inventions or technologies can apply for patents in their name or the name of their researchers.
Non-Profit Organizations and Trusts: Non-profit entities or trusts engaged in research or technological development can apply for patents on behalf of their researchers or innovators.
Joint Applicants: If an invention has been created collaboratively by multiple inventors or parties, they can jointly apply for a patent. In such cases, all the inventors must be listed in the application.
Legal Representatives or Assignees: If the inventor is deceased or unable to apply, a legal representative or assignee (someone to whom the inventor’s rights have been transferred) can apply on their behalf.
Documents Required For Patent Registration
Patent Application Form (Form 1): This is the primary form for filing a patent application, providing details about the applicant, the invention, and its nature.
Description of the Invention (Form 2): A detailed written description of the invention, explaining how it works and its unique features. This form is typically accompanied by a technical specification.
Claims: A set of claims that define the scope of the invention and the specific protection sought. Claims are the most crucial part of a patent application and define the boundaries of your invention.
Drawings/Diagrams (if applicable): If the invention can be better understood visually, clear drawings or diagrams may be required. These should depict the invention in a way that clearly shows its structure, functionality, or working mechanism.
Abstract of the Invention: A concise summary (about 150 words) of the invention, highlighting its purpose and key features. This helps the patent office quickly assess the nature of the invention.
Proof of Applicant’s Identity:
For individuals: A government-issued ID such as Aadhaar, Passport, or Voter ID.
For companies or organizations: The Certificate of Incorporation and PAN card of the company.
Proof of Right to Apply (if applicable): If the applicant is not the original inventor (e.g., in the case of an assignment or employment situation), a document proving the right to apply, such as an assignment agreement, should be submitted.
No Objection Certificate (NOC): If the invention was created during employment or as part of a research contract, a NOC from the employer or the contracting organization may be required.
Declaration of Inventorship (Form 5): A declaration stating the inventors' names, their contribution to the invention, and the confirmation that the applicant has the rights to apply for the patent.
Priority Documents (if claiming priority from another application): If you're claiming priority based on an earlier filed patent application in another country, you’ll need to submit the priority document (this is commonly required for international patent applications).
Receipt of Payment: A receipt or proof of payment for the required patent filing fee.
