PATENT
Patent registration can be obtained for an innovation. A patent is an exclusive right granted by the government to the inventor of an invention that is new, unique, and has an inventive solution to a pre-existing technical problem.
An exact check is done before a patent registration is obtained to know that the product is new and innovative and to check if there is an invention that is the same or similar to the applicant’s invention.
A patent is a form of intellectual property rights (IPR) that gives its owner the legal right to exclude others from making, using, or selling an invention for a limited period of years in exchange for publishing an enabling public disclosure of the invention. In most countries, patent rights fall under private law and the patent holder must sue someone infringing the patent in order to enforce his or her rights. Patents are a right granted to an inventor that allows them to exclude all others from making, using, or selling their invention for 20 years.
