Abstract:
Geographical Indication (GI) is a sign used on a product that originates from a specific geographical location. The product must possess reputation and qualities of the place of origin. GI are generally registered on products produced by rural, marginal and indigenous communities over generations that have garnered massive reputation at the international and national level due to some of its unique qualities. GI tag gives the right to only those registered users the right to use the product name, and prevents others from using the product name that does not meet the standards prescribed. In addition, the qualities, characteristics or reputation of the product should be essentially due to the place of origin. Since the qualities depend on the geographical place of production, there is a clear link between the product and its original place of production. Geographical Indications of Goods are defined as that aspect of industrial property which refer to the geographical indication referring to a country or to a place situated therein as being the country or place of origin of that product. Typically, such a name conveys an assurance of quality and distinctiveness which is essentially attributable to the fact of its origin in that defined geographical locality, region or country. Under Articles 1 (2) and 10 of the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property, geographical indications are covered as an element of IPRs. They are also covered under Articles 22 to 24 of the Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) Agreement, which was part of the Agreements concluding the Uruguay Round of GATT negotiations.
