3.  Intellectual property broadly means the legelright
which results from intellectual activity in the industry ,
scientific literary and artistic fields
 Countries have laws to protect intellectual property for
two main reasons ,one to give statutory expansion to
the moral and economic right of creators in their
creations and the right of the public in access to those
creations
 The second is to promote ,as a deliberate act of
government policy creativity and the dissemination
and application of it’s result’s and to encourage fair
trading which would contribute to economic and social
development
 Intellectual property is traditionally divided into two
branches, ‘industrial property and copy right’.

4.  The Convention establishing the World Intellectual
Property Organization (1967) gives the following list of
the subject matter protected by intellectual property
rights:
- literary, artistic and scientific works,
- performances of performing artists, phonograms and
broadcasts,
- inventions in all fields of human endeavour,
- scientific discoveries,
- industrial designs,
- trademarks, service marks and commercial names and
designations,
- protection against unfair competition,
and all other rights resulting from intellectual activity in
the industrial, scientific, literary or artistic fields.”

9.  The word patent was coined from Latin term ‘patent- em’
meaning open. A patent is a document issued by government to
the inventor granting him exclusive rights to make , sell, use, or
import upon disclosure of the invention for a definite period of
time
 An invention must, in general, fulfil the following conditions to
be protected by a patent.
 It must be : novel, non obvious, useful, and enable.
 There are three types of patents: 1) Utility patents may be
granted to anyone who invents or discovers any new and
useful process, machine, article of manufacture, or composition
of matter, or any new and useful improvement thereof;
 2) Design patents may be granted to anyone who invents a
new, original, and ornamental design for an article of
manufacture; .

10.  3) Plant patents may be granted to anyone who
invents or discovers and asexually reproduces any
distinct and new variety of plant
 In India , the patent act, 1970 governs the protection
of inventions as intellectual property. India
intellectual property office located at Kolkata, Delhi,
Mumbai and Chennai receives applications and
grants patents for invention.
 The term of patent is for 20 yrs. from the date of
filling.
 After 20 years patent becomes off-patent
 EX. NOVEL INJECTABLE ANTIMALERIAL
COMPOSITIONS OF ARTEMISININ is patented

11.  Trademark is an indication of a product oriented from an
individual or a company signifying the quality of the
product and distinguishes from its competitor. A trademark
is an alphabet, numerical, alpha numerical, device or a
combination of these.
 Service mark is the same as a trademark except that it
identifies and distinguishes the source of a service rather
than a product
 Use of TM (trademark) or SM (service mark) designation
with the mark to alert the public to the claim
 Trademark registry located at Mumbai, Kolkata, Delhi,
Chennai, Ahmedabad receives applications and registers the
mark
 The term of trademark is for 10years and renewed from time
to time

12.  Collective marks as registered marks are issued to several
companies having same product with individual trade marks.
such collective marks indicate the product is fulfilling the quality
guidelines set by organization issuing the collective mark.
 The symbol indicates registered trademark
 symbol indicates trademark under processing not
registered

13.  Trade secret is a formula, practice, process
design, instrument, pattern, commercial
method, or compilation of information not
generally known or reasonably ascertainable
by other by which a business can obtain an
economic advantage over competitors or
customer.
 Trade secrets are also called as ‘know how.’
 Trade secrete may include: sales methods,
distribution methods, consumer’s profiles,
advertising strategies, list of suppliers and
clients, manufacturing processes.

14.  One of the most famous examples of a trade secret
is the formula for Coca-Cola. The formula, also
referred to by the code name "Merchandise 7X"
 In the past, you could not buy Coca-Cola in India
because Indian law required that trade-secret
information be disclosed. In 1991, India changed
its laws regarding trademarks, and Coca-Cola can
now be sold in the country

15.  A geographical indication is a sign used on goods
that have a specific geographical origin and
possess qualities or a reputation due to that place
of origin.
 Most commonly, a geographical indication consists
of the name of the place of origin of the goods.
Agricultural products typically have qualities that
derive from their place of production and are
influenced by specific local geographical factors,
such as climate and soil.
 The use of geographical indications is not limited
to agricultural products. They may also highlight
specific qualities of a product that are due to
human factors found in the product’s place of
origin, such as specific manufacturing skills

16.  The term geographical indication for 10 years.
 Examples of geographical indications are
Mysore sandal soap, Tirupati basmati rice etc.

17.  Design layout of circuits of hardware is playing a
critical role bringing out especially electronic goods
into more compact, aesthetic appearance. Such circuits
are found to possess very high industrial application
leading to increase in business, economic growth of the
country.
 In India, the semiconductor integrated circuits layout
design act, 2000 governs registration of designs of
circuits layouts. Semiconductor integrated circuit
layout design registry located at New Delhi receives
applications and register the design of the layout of the
circuits. the criteria for registration of semiconductor
integrated circuit layout design are, the design layout
should be original, not commercially exploited, and
distinctive.

18.  Department of information technology,
ministry of communications and information
technology, government of India implements
the intellectual property of semiconductor
integrated circuit layout design in India.
 The term of semiconductor integrated circuit
layout design in India is for 10years

19.  An industrial design refers to the ornamental or
aesthetic aspects of an article. A design may consist
of three-dimensional features, such as the shape or
surface of an article, or two-dimensional features,

21.  PLANT VARIETY PROTECTION & THE PURPOSE
 The Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers Rights Act, 2001 .
 The main aim of this Act is to establish an effective system for the
protection of plant varieties and, the rights of the breeders and to
encourage the development of new varieties of plants.
 CRITERIA FOR PROTECTING A PLANT VARIETY
The plant variety must be:
 Novel: if at the date of filing an application for registration for protection,
the propagating or harvested material of such variety has not been sold or
otherwise disposed of in India earlier than one year or outside India, in
the case of trees or vines earlier than six years, or in any other case earlier
than four years, before the date of filing such application
 • Distinct: A variety should be clearly distinguishable by
at least one essential characteristic from existing or commonly known
varieties in any country at the time of filing of the application.
 • Uniform: A Variety must be sufficiently uniform in its essential
characteristics.
 • Stable: Essential characteristics of a variety must be stable after repeated
propagation or in the case of a particular cycle of propagation at the end
of each cycle.

22.  DURATION OF PROTECTION FOR A REGISTERED PLANT
VARIETY
• Trees and Vines: 18 Years
• Other crops: 15 Years.
• Extant Varieties: 15 Years from the date of notification of that
variety by the Central Government under Seed Act, 1966.
 PLANTS THAT ARE COVERED UNDER THE PPVFR ACT
 • As of now following 18 plant species can be registered under
the Act.
 • Cereals: Rice , Wheat, Maize, Sorghum, Pearl Millet.
 • Legumes: Chickpea, Mungbean , Urdbean , Field Pea, Rajmah
, Lentil, Pigeon Pea.
 • Fibre Crop:
 • Four species of cotton namely Gossypium Arboreum L. and G.
Herbaceum L.
 (Diploid Cotton) and G. Barbadense L. and G. Hirsutum L.
(Tertaploid Cotton)
 • Two species of Jute (Corchorus Olitorius L. and C. Capsularis
L.)

23.  Copyright is a right given by the law to creators of literary,
dramatic, musical and artistic works and producers of
cinematograph films and sound recordings.
 Unlike the case with patents, copyright protects the
expressions and not the ideas. There is no copyright in an
idea
 In India, the law relating to copyright is governed by the
Copyright Act, 1957 which has been amended in 1983, 1984,
1985, 1991, 1992, 1994, 1999 and 2012 to meet with the
national and international requirements.
 Literary, dramatic, musical or artistic works enjoy copyright
protection for the life time of the author plus 60 years
beyond i.e. 60 years after his death. In the case of copyright
in posthumous, anonymous and pseudonymous works,
photographs, cinematograph films, sound recordings, works
of Government, public undertaking and international
organisations, the term of protection is 60 years from the
beginning of the calendar year next following the year in
which the work has been first published.

24.  In India, the copyright Act, 1957 governs registration of a work as
a copyright. Department of Higher education, Ministry of Human
Resources Development, Government of India implements the
intellectual property of protection of literacy and artistic work as
copyrights. Applications are received at New Delhi office.
 Several pharmaceutical text books , figures, questionnaires are
copyright protected either directly by the author or throught a
publisher.

25.  Economic development is the increase in the
standard of living in a nation's population with
sustained growth from a simple, low-income
economy to a modern, high-income economy
 IPR could well increase economic growth and
foster beneficial technical change, thereby
improving development prospects, if they are
structured in a manner that promotes effective
and dynamic competition .

26.  Intellectual property rights could play a
significant role in encouraging innovation,
product development, and technical change to
help in development of the economy through
low-cost imitation of foreign products and
technologies. However, inadequate IPR could
stifle technical change even at low levels of
economic development because much
invention and product innovation are aimed at
local markets and could benefit from domestic
protection of patents, utility models, and trade
secrets.
