Patents
Patent
A patent is an exclusive right granted by the Indian Government to an inventor, offering legal protection for their innovation. This protection covers products or processes that introduce new technical or functional advancements. Given India’s dynamic market and rapid technological growth, securing patents has become essential for businesses. At Shinde & Associates, our skilled patent agents and attorneys, supported by technically proficient experts, assist organizations in protecting their inventions and maintaining a competitive edge.
A patent provides a time-bound monopoly to the owner of an invention, enabling them to prevent others from manufacturing, using, selling, or importing their invention without authorization. However, holding a patent does not automatically grant the right to use the invention; compliance with other regulations, such as health and safety laws or overlapping patents, may still be required.
Patents are often referred to as “negative rights” because they empower inventors to restrict others from exploiting their creations, ensuring exclusive control over their innovations.
