Thanks....

In an emplyee employer context, Assignment deed will have to be executed.

Any idea as to what are the registration formalities in india for the Assignment Deed.

Hope templates available on Internel would be good enopugh.

Does indian Patent office offer e-filing facility.

Between empolyer and employee there is a contractual agreement  which includes clauses on all patents etc. This is a standard agreement.However  while filing application for patent in form 1 for a particular invention  the inventor has to sign a declaration in para 9  that he is the true and first inventor and that the applicants are his assignee.This gives the  right to the applicant even if there is no  separate assignment.
