The Patent system in India is governed by the Patents Act, 1970 & The Patents Rules 1972. A patent is a grant by the India patent office that allows the patent owner to maintain a monopoly for a limited period of time on the use and development of an invention. This right excludes others from making, processing, producing, using, selling, and importing the product or process in India without patent owner's consent. Patent Registration is done through LegalRaasta.
