Under Section 43(2) of the Patents Act, 1970, which of the following occurs immediately on the grant of a patent?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
Section 43(2) provides that on grant "the Controller shall publish the fact that the patent has been granted and thereupon the application, specification and other documents related thereto shall be open for public inspection". A granted patent can still be challenged, for example by post-grant opposition or revocation under section 64.
