FAQs

Patent Filing in Mumbai — Common Questions

Under the Patents Act, 1970, any invention that is novel, involves an inventive step and is capable of industrial application can be patented. Mumbai-based companies commonly file patents for mechanical innovations, chemical processes, pharmaceutical formulations, electronic devices and software-implemented inventions.
Filing a provisional patent application in India takes 24–48 hours after our patent agents complete the specification. The full examination and grant process takes 3–5 years, but your priority date is protected from the moment of provisional filing — which is why filing early is critical.
Patent filing costs vary based on the type of application (provisional, complete, PCT international), number of claims and applicant type (natural person, startup or corporate). We provide a detailed cost breakdown after an initial consultation — contact us for a specific quote.
Yes. Indian patent law provides reduced government fees for startups and individual inventors. A Mumbai-based startup filing through our office benefits from these concessions, making early patent protection financially accessible even at the pre-revenue stage.
A provisional specification secures your priority date without requiring complete claims — useful when your invention is still being refined. You must file the complete specification within 12 months. Many Mumbai inventors file provisional first to protect themselves before presenting at conferences or to investors.
