Misconceptions in Coaching Notes: Intellectual Property Law

Yaar, most coaching notes and institutes for DU LLB Entrance get this wrong, but let's set it straight - Intellectual Property law is not exclusively concerned with 'property' in the classical sense. It's more about the rights of creators and innovators. Section 2(m) of the IP Code clearly states: "Intellectual property" means property of any existing kind which is the result of intellectual creation, but the key word here is 'result of intellectual creation'. So, IP rights are not limited to tangible goods, but also intangible ones like patents, copyrights, trademarks. This concept is crucial to crack questions in Paper III of DU LLB Entrance - so don't get hoodwinked by coaching notes, think it through!
