IIPTA launches a set of 7 books - a must have for Patent Agent Examination Preparation.

The books contain the following titles:

1) Bare Act - Patent Act 1970 - Revised with all the latest amendments. We felt that the latest

amendments were not updated in the Bare Act available in the market and as the amendments are new,

it is likely that there will be questions on them in the exam.

2) Paper 1 - A complete book on paper 1 of Patent Agent Examination with comprehensive examples,

illustrations and activities and expected question at the end of each chapter.

3) Case Studies - A book of expected case study based questions and how to solve and write answers for

such questions. Most students find it tough and quite time taking for solve these case study based

questions. So IIPTA came up with a way to break the case and easily answering the questions asked

rather than wasting time of facts which are purposefully put into the question to confuse the test taker.

4) Patent Drafting - The most important and most difficult part of the exam needed a special dedicated

book. This book covers it all - Patent drafting, claim writing, complete specification writing for different

industries and types of intellectual property.

5) Previous Years Papers and Solutions

6) Viva Voice - First time a book on what to expect in the viva of Patent Agent Exam and how to prepare

for it. Panel who will be taking your viva are seasoned patent examiner, controllers and professionals. If 

you do not qualify in the viva, your paper 1 and paper 2 answers will not even be checked and scored.

7) Quick Notes-This is a book consisting of all the chapters and topics for Patent Agent Exam in the from

of slides (4 Slides per page) and is very helpful just before the exam to revise the entire syllabus in a few

minutes time.
