The application must also include the name and address of the owner, and a statement of the novelty of the design. The IPO will examine the application to ensure that the design is new and original, and does not infringe on any existing designs.

Once the application is approved, the owner will receive a certificate of registration for the design. The registration is valid for a period of 10 years, after which it can be renewed for another 5 years.

To avail of design registration service in India, the owner can hire a patent attorney or agent who is registered with the IPO. The attorney or agent can provide assistance with preparing and filing the application, and can also provide guidance on the registration process and requirements.
