Overview

What is Patent Registration?

A patent is an exclusive right granted by the government to an inventor for their novel invention. Under the Patents Act 1970 (amended in 2005), a patent gives the holder the right to prevent others from making, using, selling, or importing the patented invention in India for <strong>20 years from the filing date</strong>.

India has four Patent Offices — in Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, and Kolkata — administered by the Office of the Controller General of Patents, Designs & Trade Marks (CGPDTM). India is also a signatory to the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT), enabling you to extend protection to 150+ countries.

PrimeWealth Advisory assists with both <strong>provisional patent applications</strong> (for early protection while your invention is being developed) and <strong>complete patent applications</strong>, along with patent search, claims drafting, and prosecution.
