Law of Trademarks and Copyrights Law and other Related Rights

Most Likely Questions — Law of Trademarks & Copyrights Law and Other Related Rights (LLM Semester II) is a sharp, practice-oriented companion for postgraduate IP exams. Organized to mirror university patterns, it compiles frequently asked and application-based questions with case-law cues and concise answer frameworks. Trademark coverage spans the Trade Marks Act, 1999—distinctiveness, absolute/relative grounds, deceptive similarity tests, opposition and rectification, infringement vs passing off, parallel imports, and civil/criminal remedies. Copyright coverage under the Copyright Act, 1957 explains authorship and ownership, assignment and licensing, moral rights, subsistence and term, infringement and fair dealing, technological protection measures and digital issues. “Other related rights” introduces performers’ rights and broadcast reproduction rights, while cross-references link Indian doctrine to TRIPS/WIPO principles. Each chapter highlights typical pitfalls and examiner expectations, helping students present structured, authoritative answers under time pressure. Authored by Adv. Dr. Ambarish R. Patnigere, the book doubles as a quick-revision guide for viva and open-book assessments.
