Abstract
This paper considers the patentability requirement which can be considered as the ultimate condition for the grant of patent protection: the requirement that the inventive step be involved and that the invention be non-obvious, in Indian pretext. The Patents Act, 1970 defines the term “invention†under section 2 (1)(j) which means “a new product or process involving an inventive step and capable of an industrial application. Hence it provides the tripartite criteria for patentability which involves: novelty, inventive step and industrial application. This project work is thus structured in a way so as to provide complete analysis over the “inventive step†criteria for patentability in India along with a little brief hint of comparative study with that of USA and UK. The project work has been divided into various chapters such as “meaning and definition of patent†which dealt with various definitions of “patent†which is followed by next chapter dealing with “patentable inventions†which dealt with the introduction of patentability requirements and followed by the last chapter “inventive step: criteria for patentability†which respectively dealt with ‘definition of inventive step’; ‘inventive step: ground for revocation’; ‘essential ingredients of inventive step’; ‘obviousness approach’; ‘assessment of inventive step in an invention’ and ‘comparative overview of obviousness approach’.
