Intellectual Property Law Bare Act

An IPR Bare Act refers to the original, unaltered text of statutes that govern intellectual property rights in India, without any commentary or interpretation. These acts form the foundation of India’s legal framework for protecting innovations, creative works, and brand identities. Key IPR bare acts include The Patents Act, 1970, which deals with inventions and patents; The Trade Marks Act, 1999, which governs brand names, logos, and marks; The Copyright Act, 1957, which protects literary, artistic, and musical works; and The Designs Act, 2000, which safeguards industrial designs.
