Why Patent Applications Get Delayed or Rejected
Most patent problems are avoidable, but they need careful drafting and category selection from the very start.
Specification not drafted with enough technical detail
Prior art not properly searched before filing
Applicant category claimed incorrectly
Examination request deadline missed after filing
Elixir Filings drafts your specification carefully and manages your application through examination, not just the initial filing.

01
Patent Registration
A patent protects the functional or technical aspects of an invention, a process, product, or method, for 20 years. Filing usually starts with a patent search to check existing prior art, followed by a provisional application to lock in your filing date, then a complete specification within 12 months, and examination, which can take a few years overall. Elixir Filings manages this process end to end, including drafting support.

ProtectionWhat It CoversValidity
CopyrightCreative works, content, software codeLife of the creator plus 60 years
TrademarkBrand names, logos, slogans10 years, renewable
PatentInventions and processes20 years, not renewable
Your invention also has a distinctive product name or logo? See our Trademark Registration service, since patents and trademarks often protect a product together.
Not sure whether to file a provisional or complete application first? A provisional application locks in your filing date early, giving you 12 months to finalise the complete specification. We advise on the right approach for your timeline.
Received a patent objection during examination? We prepare and file a response addressing the examiner's specific concerns.
Elixir Filings also supports patent filing across Tamil Nadu and other states in India, with the same transparent pricing and dedicated advisor support.
