Patent infringement occurs when a patented invention is used, made, sold, or distributed without the authorization of the patent holder. In India, patent rights are protected under the Patents Act of 1970, and violations of these rights can lead to severe legal consequences. Whether you are a patent holder concerned about infringement or an entity accused of patent violation, understanding patent infringement law in India is crucial for protecting your business interests.
At AMD LAW INDIA, we provide expert legal services to help clients address patent infringement issues, including patent violation claims and patent litigation. Our team of experienced IP attorneys is dedicated to safeguarding your inventions and intellectual property rights through strategic legal action.
Patent infringement occurs when a party makes, uses, sells, or offers to sell a patented invention without the permission of the patent holder. In India, this could include anything from copying a patented design to using a patented process without authorization. If you have a valid patent and discover that someone is violating it, you have the right to take legal action.
• Direct Infringement: Where the exact patented invention is used without permission.
• Indirect Infringement: Involves offering for sale or selling an invention that is covered by an existing patent, even if the product is not identical.
Patent rights are critical for safeguarding innovation and ensuring that inventors and businesses can benefit from their ideas. If someone infringes on your patent, it can lead to significant financial losses, hinder your market share, and damage your brand reputation. In India, patent infringement cases often revolve around complex issues such as:
Is the patent holder’s invention truly original and novel?
Does the alleged infringer’s product or process fall within the scope of the patent claims?
Patent infringement can be a complex and daunting issue for businesses and individuals. Whether you’re dealing with patent violation or patent litigation, the legal process can be overwhelming. Here are some common challenges faced by our clients:
Detecting patent infringement is often not straightforward. Many times, infringement may occur without the patent holder’s knowledge, especially in the case of indirect infringement. Identifying whether a patent violation has occurred requires a detailed investigation into the competing product or process.
Patent litigation can be both time-consuming and costly. The legal process in India involves multiple steps, from filing an infringement suit to proving the patent’s validity and scope. For many businesses, navigating the intricacies of patent litigation can feel like a long and uncertain journey.
Once an infringement is identified, enforcing your patent rights and obtaining remedies such as damages or an injunction can be difficult. Patent holders often face challenges in demonstrating the extent of their losses and proving that the infringement has caused harm.
