This Agreement, inter-alia, contains an Agreement on Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) which lays down minimum standards for protection and enforcement of IPR which are required to promote effective and adequate protection of IPR with a view to reducing distortions. Much of this is due to the country's introduction, on January 1, 2005, of a system of product patents; before that, only patents for processes were permitted to be issued. The purpose of this research paper is to study the problems faced by innover in filling patent in Indian pharmaceutical industry. The paper also includes study of problem related to research and development activities, patent filling process etc.
