An official from the India Patent Registration Service Centre shared regarding this:
"Each application for patent will be subjected to several stage of check-ups only after which the patent will be given.
As such, it may take up to a year to get the patent.
As such, the registration of obtaining a patent by itself is a signal of the awareness regarding patents.
We receive more applications from the State of Tamil Nadu as compared to other States in India.
These are being scrutinized thoroughly and after several stages of tests, a patent is given. Applications for patents come in large numbers from the fields of medicine, agriculture, and beauty cosmetics. Applications for Patents are received in large number for manufacturing of products in various fields."
