What is Design Registration?

Industrial Design Registration protects the visual appearance of a product. It encompasses the shape, configuration, pattern, ornament, or composition of lines or colors applied to any article in two or three-dimensional form.

Governed by the Designs Act, 2000, it aims to protect the creative and aesthetic efforts of manufacturers. It prevents competitors from producing products with the same visual characteristics.

Features & Benefits

Ensure your unique product aesthetics remain exclusive to your brand.

Visual Exclusivity

Gain a legal monopoly over your product's appearance, ensuring that no one else can sell or distribute products with the same design.

Brand Identity

A unique design becomes a signature of your brand, helping consumers identify your products easily in a cluttered market.

Enforcement Rights

Design registration provides a strong legal basis to sue for infringement and seek damages against unauthorized copying.

What can be Registered?

  • Novelty: The design must be new and original.
  • Non-Functional: It must only cover aesthetic features, not functional parts.
  • Article-Based: It must be applied to an industrial article.

Documents Required
