TRADE MARK

A trade mark is an identification mark which may be a word, a device, a label, a name brand, heading or numeral etc. or a combination thereof used to enable the people to distinguish one trader's goods from other traders. Service Mark, Collective Mark, Certification Mark, Textile Marks, Trade Name or Enterprise Name are all various types of trade marks. Now shape of goods, packaging and combination of colours can be also adopted as a trade mark. A trade mark becomes identification of the company and the goods sold there under and thus become the symbol of goodwill and reputation of trader.

   

COPYRIGHT

Defining Copyright in straight forward words is very easy, one can say that copyright means “Exclusive Right to Copy Original Work”. Copyright is a branch of Law of Intellectual Property and is protected by the Indian Copyright Act 1957. Copyright is a legal right, given exclusively to the creator/originator (or assignee) to make further copies for publication and public performance of work. Elaborately describing copyright is a legal right given to the creator of literary (including computer programs, tables and compilations including computer databases which may be expressed in words, codes, schemes or in any other form, including a machine readable medium), dramatic, musical and artistic works and producers of cinematograph films and sound recordings. It is very necessary to make it clear that the copyright law does not protect the idea but protects only the method of expression of idea.

  

PATENTS

A patent in an exclusive right granted by a country to the owner of an invention to make, use, manufacture and market the invention, provided the invention satisfies certain conditions stipulated in the law. Exclusivity of right implies that no one else can make, use, manufacture or market the invention without the consent of the patent holder. This right is available only for a limited period of time. However, the use or exploitation of a patent may be affected by other laws of the country which has awarded the patent.
