PATENT INTRODUCTION

A patent is an exclusive right granted for an invention, which is a product or a process that provides, in general, a new way of doing something, or offers a new technical solution to a problem. To get a patent, technical information about the invention must be disclosed to the public in a patent application.

PROCESS OF PATENT REGISTRATION

STEP 1: PATENT SEARCH

Patent Search is the first step of Patent Filing procedure in India and is conducted worldwide to determine the novelty of an invention. Generally, it is considered safe to do patent searches before patent application filing. If an invention is found in prior arts or closely resembling prior arts, then the novelty of that invention can be challenged by the Indian Patent Office and the application can be objected to. Therefore, it is important to perform prior patent searches to assess the chances of your patent getting approved by the Patent Office.

STEP 2: DRAFTING PATENT  SPECIFICATION

After conducting thorough searches worldwide, the specification of the invention is written in a techno-legal language with or without the inventor’s claims. Without claims is the provisional specification and with claims is the complete specification. The specification outlines the field of invention, detailed description of the invention with working examples, and the best method to use the invention so that when it comes to the knowledge of a person skilled in the art, it can be easily used. Legal protection to the patent is granted when the specification is drafted with the inventor’s claim and is complete.

STEP 3: PATENT APPLICATION FILING

After drafting the Patent Specification, you can begin the procedure for Filing Patent Application in India. As we discussed earlier, patent applications can be provisional or complete, based on the specifications drafted. The drafted provisional or complete specification is filed in Form-2 while Patent Application form is filed in Form 1 as prescribed by the Indian Patent Act.

 If a provisional patent specification is filed, then within 12 months of its filing, a complete specification has to be filed with the inventor’s claims. There are 6 different types of Patent Application forms which can be filed on the basis of their purpose. These are:

Ordinary patent application: Used to file a patent application directly in India, seeking protection only within the Indian Territory.

PCT National phase patent application: Used to enter the national phase of PCT or Patent Cooperation Treaty in India, after which the applicant will be allowed to seek patent protection in multiple countries.

PCT International patent application: Used to file a single patent application for patent registration in multiple countries which are members of the PCT, providing a centralized process for seeking patent protection internationally.

Convention patent application: Used to claim priority based on an earlier application filed in a convention country, allowing applicants to secure the priority date for their invention.

Divisional patent application: Used to divide an existing patent application into multiple separate applications, typically when the existing application contains multiple inventions.

Patent of addition application: Used to file an application for an improvement or modification of an already existing invention for which a patent has already been granted.

STEP 4: PATENT PUBLICATION FOR PUBLIC OPPOSITION

Once the patent application process is complete, then after the expiry of 18 months from the date of patent filing or date of priority whichever is earlier, the patent is published in an official journal and is open for public viewing and inspection. This provides an opportunity to the general public to raise an objection to the patent on valid grounds.

STEP 5: REQUESTING  PATENT  EXAMINATION

The patent application is examined only when a request for examination has been filed. The request for examination has to be filed within 48 months of the patent filing date or dateof the priority. The patent examiner examines a patent application and issues an examination report. The examination report contains a series of objections raised by an examiner. The response to an examination report has to be filed within 12 months of the issuance of the examination report. If needed, the examiner can call the applicant or his agent for a show cause hearing to resolve the objections. That’s why this phase is also called patent prosecution.

STEP 6: GRANT OF A PATENT

After all objections to the examination report have been replied to and the examiner is satisfied with the reply of the applicant, the application is put in order for grant of Patent Registration. This marks the end of the procedure for registration of Patent. On the other hand, if the examiner is not satisfied with the reply and arguments of the applicant, then he/she can reject the patent application. In this case, the applicant will again have to repeat the entire patent procedure in India again to get patent protection.
