A patent is a right granted for an invention that is new and useful. Patent Act protects invention from unauthorized use and also gives a monopoly to the creator to exploit his invention and derive maximum benefit from it.
The India Patent Act 1970 defines an invention as follows: “invention means a new product or process involving an inventive step and capable of industrial application.”
An invention may be a device, substance, method or process. It can include some types of computer programs and business systems. Any product or process will be deemed to be an invention if it is novel, non-obvious, involves an inventive step and has industrial application. An invention should be novel, this means that such an invention should not have existed previously.

- Invention must involve an inventive step;
- The invention must be capable of industrial application or utility;
- The invention shouldn’t come under the inventions which are not patentable under Section 3 and 4 of the Patent Act, 1970
