Design Registration Procedure in India
Design Registration: Safeguard Your Unique Creations

Design registration plays a crucial role in protecting the visual appeal of an article. In India, design registration is governed by specific laws that ensure the exclusivity of designs and prevent unauthorized usage. By obtaining design registration, creators and businesses can secure their unique designs from being copied or imitated, thereby maintaining their competitive edge in the market.

Design Registration - Governing Law

The Designs Act, 2000, along with the Designs Rules, 2001, regulates the design registration procedure in India. The primary objective of this law is to protect the aesthetic appearance of an article and ensure that only the registered owner has exclusive rights over its use. The Controller General of Patents, Designs, and Trademarks (CGPDTM) oversees the registration process in India.

Definition of a Design

A design refers to the features of shape, configuration, pattern, ornament, or composition of lines or colors applied to an article, whether in two-dimensional or three-dimensional form. It must be judged solely by the eye and must be original and new. It should not include any mode of construction or mechanical process but must be appealing to the aesthetic sense of individuals.

Basic Requirements of Design Registration
  • Novelty and Originality: The design should be new and original, meaning it has not been published or disclosed in India or any other country before the application date.
  • Uniqueness: The design should have a distinct visual appearance and should not resemble any pre-existing design.
  • Applicability: The design must be applied to an article through an industrial process.
  • Non-functional: The design should be purely aesthetic and should not involve any functional features.
Exclusions from Design Registration

Certain designs are not eligible for registration under Indian law. These include:

  • Designs that are not new or original.
  • Designs that have been disclosed to the public before filing.
  • Designs that are scandalous or obscene in nature.
  • Designs dictated purely by the functional needs of the article.
  • Designs contrary to public order or morality.
  • Designs comprising only mechanical processes or modes of construction.
Who Can Apply for Design Registration?

The following entities are eligible to apply for design registration in India:

  • The author or creator of the design.
  • A person or entity that has acquired the design from the author.
  • A company or individual to whom the design has been transferred.
  • A legal representative or assignee of the original owner.
Documents Required for Design Registration in India
  • Application Form (Form-1) duly filled and signed.
  • Representations of the design (in duplicate) showing different views (top, front, side, etc.).
  • A statement of novelty explaining how the design is new and unique.
  • A certified copy of priority documents, if the priority is claimed.
  • A power of attorney (if applicable) when an agent or legal representative files the application.
  • Proof of payment of prescribed fees for registration.
Benefits of Design Registration in India
  • Exclusive Rights: The registered owner gets exclusive rights over the design for ten years, which can be extended by another five years.
  • Legal Protection: Acts as legal proof of ownership, enabling action against unauthorized use or imitation.
  • Commercial Value: Adds value to the product, increasing appeal to consumers and investors.
  • Monetary Gains: Allows licensing or selling of the design, generating additional revenue.
  • Brand Recognition: Helps build brand recognition and consumer trust through a unique design.
Procedure for Design Registration in India
  1. Conducting a Design Search: Ensure the design is unique by checking existing records.
  2. Filing the Design Application: Submit Form-1 with required documents and fees to the Design Office in Kolkata.
  3. Examination of Application: The application is scrutinized for compliance; objections may be issued if discrepancies are found.
  4. Addressing the Examination Report: Respond to objections and make necessary modifications if required.
  5. Publication in the Official Journal: Once approved, the design is published and a waiting period for opposition begins.
  6. Certificate of Registration: If no opposition is raised, the design is registered and a certificate issued, granting exclusive rights for ten years.
