Intellectual property (IP)refers to creations of the mind: inventions; literary and artistic works; and symbols, names and images used in commerce1.

Considering the changing nature of businesses today and the ever evolving IP field, it was felt that certain aspects of the present IPR regime need to be modified to suit the present day challenges. Also keeping in mind that India has to be compliant with TRIPs (being a member of the WTO), we need to keep our laws updated and equitable. With this view in mind, Indian Government decided to come up with the National IPR Policy.

The policy seeks to instill the importance of IPR in every sector and also seeks to modify the existing literature/laws to curtail the issues faced by the stakeholders.

Open AI OpCo LLC, Justice Amit Bansal declined to grant an interim injunction against OpenAI, holding, on a prima facie, interim stage view, that the company’s use of ANI’s news content to train its large language models (“LLMs”) falls within the fair dealing exception under Section 52(1)(a) of the Copyright Act, 1957
