India, being one of the developing countries in the world, has come forward a long way in the last few years. Thanks to several initiatives by the current Government of India, businesses and individuals are getting the confidence to take risks and earn higher revenue. According to the famous media professional and founder of Sunshine Digimedia Pvt Ltd (SDPL), Romil Ramgarhia, India is currently going through its most encouraging phase for business owners where innovation is thriving and will only continue to attain higher peaks.

This rise in innovation also helps the rise in patent registration in India. There is an increase of 572%in the number of patents granted in this current time frame of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Mr Ramgarhia considers this as great scope for start-ups to try innovative ideas and get patents for their innovation.

What Is a Patent?

A patent is a kind of license or government authority for certain intellectual property that allows its owner to enjoy the legal rights to stop anyone else from making, claiming, using or selling that particular invention for a certain number of years. The owner has to publish a public disclosure of that certain invention.

The government will grant the property right for a certain innovation to the inventor. The inventor solely possesses an exclusive right to make, use, sell and claim that invention for a designated period.

The current rise in patent registration will help this ongoing tech revolution in India to a great extent. More and more innovative ideas and content will be secured through patents and IPR.

Role of Indian Government

Modi Government has made the process easy, which will also enable start-up revolution and ongoing enterprises to achieve their goals within the shortest possible time. This will have a huge impact on the national economy in long term.

The modern techniques of the Indian government have a special screening method for every patent application to ensure their authentication. These applications are digitally processed to avoid mistakes and make the entire procedure faster than before. Even hearings are arranged via phone calls to avoid delays and long waiting times.
