Corrections log

Every material correction we make to the legal content on this site, dated, with what was wrong and what it now says. A corrections policy that produces no corrections is not a policy, it is decoration — so this page exists whether or not it flatters us.

DateWhat changedSeverity
20 August 2026Rule 131 / Section 146 — working statement interval
Section 146 originally described the Form 27 working statement as an annual filing. It was corrected to the position under the Patents (Amendment) Rules, 2024: once for every block of three financial years, filed within six months of the block ending. The earlier annual position is now noted as history on the page.
Material — a reader could have diarised the wrong date.
20 August 2026Amendment attributions across 83 provisions
Amendment history was added to 83 provisions. In doing so several attributions in the original explanations were corrected: sections 21, 22, 27 and 39 were amended or omitted by the Patents (Amendment) Act, 2005 rather than the 2002 Act; rules 28A, 55A, 63A, 74A, 96 and 138, and the omission of rule 38 and Chapter V, come from the Patents (Amendment) Rules, 2005; section 152 was omitted by the 2005 Act; and rule 28A was not a 2016 insertion.
Material — wrong amending instrument in an explanation.
20 August 2026Institutional IP Cell figure
The MYCrave track-record figure for institutional IP Cells was standardised to 70+ across the site, to match the figure published on mycrave.co.in. The site previously showed 70+.
Minor — inconsistent statistic between two of our own properties.
Typographical fixes are made silently. Anything that could cause a reader to miss a deadline, file the wrong document or misunderstand their rights is logged here. Found something wrong? Tell us — we would rather be corrected than be wrong.
