What is IPR
Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) are legal safeguards that protect the creations of the
human mind.
These creations can be anything from inventions and artistic works to symbols and
designs.
In essence, IPRs grant the creator exclusive rights to control how their creation is used
for a certain period.

Responsibilities of patentee
•Patent of addition - Term equal to that of the patent for the main
invention.
Once you’ve decided which application to file, you can move to the
next stage of the patent filing procedure in India, which is, conducting
the Patent Search. Patent Search is conducted to check whether there
are any similar inventions already patented or available in the public
domain. This is done to ensure that the product seeking patent
registration is absolutely novel and undisclosed to the public. If the
search results are clear, you can move to the next step.
Step 2: Patent Application Filing
The procedure for filing patent application involves filing Form-1 and
submitting it with Patent Specification in Form-2. You may require
additional documents at this stage, which we will discuss later.
Remember, if you’ve filed the provisional application, it must be
replaced with the complete application within a year.
Step 3 ; Patent Specification
Drafting
Only after all the objections are settled, the Registrar will consider
granting the patent rights to the inventor for 20 years from the
application date.
