Intellectual property rights, patentsAbstract
Intellectual property rights (IPR) are intangible and provide exclusive rights to the author or inventor of a valued item. In the current globalisation environment, IPR is the focus point in global commercial practises and living. In contrast, lack of understanding and inadequate application of IPR may impede the nation's economic, technological, and social progress. Any nation's need for IPR understanding and execution is paramount. The article discusses IPR terminology including patents, trademarks, industrial designs, and geographic indications, copyright, etc., their laws and regulations, as well as their importance and relevance in the Indian context. Also, the state of India's engagement in global IPR operations has been briefly reviewed.
