The Finished Article : Essays on Indian Designs Law

Year: 2022

Author: Eshan Ghosh

The Finished Article is a guided tour through over a century of Indian cases on designs law. This collection of six essays covers prior publication, novelty and originality, cancellation actions, and the infringement inquiry under Indian designs law. Breaking from academic convention, it addresses designs law by subject rather than section by section, with a keen eye throughout on the interface between designs and other disciplines of intellectual property. On each subject, this text navigates through Indian designs case law, past and present. It narrates not just what the law is but also how and why the law came to be the way it is. Covering over 500 cases since 1917, The Finished Article offers a first-of-its-kind treatment of some of the most complex and fascinating cases in all of Indian intellectual property law.
