Abstract
Intellectual property rights (IPR) are legal and official strategies that are assigned to protect the conceptions of the mind such as creations, art and literature works, and various designs (Dutfield 2005). It is also included the marks that are imprinted on different products inorder to differentiate them from similar products sold in the market (Dutfield 2005). However over years, the concept of intellectual property (IP) is overextended to inculcate not particularly the copyrights, industrial designs, patents, and trademarks; but it also includes the geographical signs, rights of the plant breeders’, profession secrets, along with the rights of the layout-designs of different integrated circuits (Dutfield 2003, 2005). Under the IP law, imperceptible possessions including creations; works related to fictional and artistic; various designs; and idioms; symbols and signs etc. can be safe guard (Dutfield 2005; http://www.innovaccess.eu/definition-ip). This type of protection are possible due to different types of IP rights such as patents, trademark, designs, copyright etc. (http://www.innovaccess.eu/definition-ip).
