The post-GATT era has ushered in a demand to for patent information world wide. India introduced for the first time the provision of granting Exclusive Privileges in 1856. The Indian Patents and Designs Act, 1911 was modelled on the British Patent Act of 1907. Thereafter, the Indian law was subjected to several amendments until the Patents Act of 1970 came into operation in April 1972. With the phenomenal growth in the number of patents and growing demand for patent information, a single source to quickly retrieve information on patents granted in India was required. INPAT ON CD-ROM serves this purpose. INPAT on CD-ROM is a bibliographic database that provides information on nearly 50,000 patents granted in India from the year 1972 to December 1997. The information on a patent in the database comprises: |
