Dispute Summary
Honda Motor Co. appealed the refusal of its patent application (No. 380/CHE/2015) by the Controller of Patents and Designs on grounds of lack of inventive step and insufficient disclosure. The High Court found that the original order was flawed due to a deprivation of fair opportunity regarding sufficiency of disclosure, and lacked proper justification for concluding lack of inventive step.
