4. Steps to Obtain a Patent Number:

The Patents Act is the governing body in India for regulating and filing patents – both new and existing ones. The Act states that the inventor, their assignee, or legal representative (in case of the inventor’s demise) can apply for a patent at the Indian Patent Office’s head office or one of its branches, depending on the applicant’s jurisdiction. Non-Indian citizens must file their applications in their respective jurisdictions where their address for service is located.

When it comes to applying for a patent, you can either do it yourself or seek help from registered agents. There are two main costs involved in getting a patent:

  • Government fees for forms and renewals and
  • charges for a professional agent (if chosen).
Using a registered agent when applying for a patent is always recommended. Here are the steps you need to follow to apply for a patent:
  • File a patent application with Caonweb.
  • The patent office assigns a unique patent number.
  • CA Sakshi Agarwal ensures a smooth process.

Patenting an invention involves several steps. Here’s a simplified version:

1. Invention disclosure: Disclose your invention to a professional by signing a non-disclosure agreement.

2. Patentability search: A professional performs research on prior evidence and creates a patentability search report.

3. Decision to file: Decide whether to file a patent application based on the research and whether your invention is an improvement.

4. Patent drafting: Draft the patent application yourself or get professional help.

5. Filing: Apply with the appropriate forms and fees.

6. Examination: Request an examination of your application and pay the fees.

7. Responding to objections: Respond to objections and clarify your invention’s novelty. 8. Grant of patent: If the application meets the requirements, it will be granted.

9. Renewal: Renew the patent after 20 years.
