Designs

Designs are governed by the Designs Act, 2000 in India. According to the Act, a Design refers to the shape, configuration, pattern, ornamentation and composition of colors applied to any article in two or three dimensional (or both) forms. This may be applied by any industrial process or means (manual, mechanical or chemical) separately or by a combined process, which in the finished article appeals to and is judged solely by the eye. Design does not include any mode or principle of construction or anything which is mere mechanical device. It also does not include any trademark or any artistic work.

The term of registration of a Design in India is 10 years which is extendable for a further period of 5 years.
