The Patents Act, 1970 & The Patents Rules, 2003:

Emphasizes innovation protection and TRIPS compliance.
The Designs Act, 2000 & The Designs Rules, 2001:

IP Jurisprudence:

Once candidates pass the written Patent Agent Examination, they must appear for an oral examination. This stage evaluates their practical knowledge, communication skills, and ability to apply patent law effectively.
Key areas include interpreting the Patents Act, 1970, drafting patent claims, addressing objections, and understanding international patent systems like the PCT. The focus is on practical application, clarity of communication, and handling real-world patent scenarios.
