1st BATCH OF CERTIFICATE COURSE ON INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

RIGHTS LAWS

IPR in India

Globalization has brought Intangible Assets in general, and Intellectual Property Rights in particular,
into sharp focus. Over the last 15 years, India has transitioned to a whole new IPR regime, and this
has thrown up several possible opportunities to provide services to our members, both in practice
and in industry. The Union Cabinet approved the National Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) Policy
that has laid the future roadmap for intellectual property in India.
ROLE OF CHARTERED ACCOUNTANTS IN INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS LAWS
Why Chartered Accountants as experts

The profession of Chartered Accountancy has always been recognized for the quality of education,
training and strong grip over technical standards. The importance of Protection of IP rights has been
rapidly increasing for various reasons and hence thereby creating huge professional opportunities.
The duties of the professional are quite onerous, and they would require in depth study and
knowledge of the subject and legalities involved. Chartered Accountants are the professionals having
core competency in providing business advisory services. They are trained to be vigilant, diligent,
accurate and fair and are governed by a Code of Ethics strictly enforced by the ICAI. The CA
profession has developed itself as an enabling instrumentality for businesses, governments, regulators
and the stakeholders.
