Dispute Summary
The petitioner challenged Chapter XI of the Trade Marks Act, 1999, and Chapter XIX of the Patents Act, 1970, arguing that they were ultra vires as they established the Intellectual Property Appellate Board (IPAB) and vested judicial functions on it. The court examined the qualifications for IPAB members and found several provisions unconstitutional.
