Design FAQs
Can a registered design be cancelled?
Any interested person can file a petition to the Controller seeking the cancellation of a registered design at any time after the registration of the design. An application for cancellation is admissible on the following grounds:
1. the design has been previously registered in India;
2. it has been published in India or in any other country before the date of filing;
3. the design is not new or original;
4. the design is not registrable under the Designs Act;
5. it is not a design as defined under the Act
