    A patent provides a monopoly right to an inventor for a new and useful invention. In India, inventions must be novel to receive a patent and cannot be obvious, frivolous, against morality, or natural substances. To apply, an applicant must provide details of the inventor, specification and drawings of the invention, priority claims if any, and a power of attorney. The patent office examines applications and may raise objections before granting a patent, which is then advertised and open to opposition for one year. Patents in India last 20 years and must be renewed annually.
