Which of the following is/are true in respect of registration of design of particular article under the Designs Act, 2000:
I. It is not possible to register same design in multiple classes of articles
II. When a design is to be applied to a set, any doubt whether the given articles do or do not constitute a set shall be determined by the proprietor of the design
III. Reports to the Controller made under the Designs Act shall not be open to public inspection
IV. Registered designs shall be open to public inspection immediately after the grant and even before the notification of the said design in official journal

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Reports made to the Controller in administering the Designs Act are protected from public inspection under section 27; the annual report placed before Parliament is the stated exception. The same design may be registered in several classes through separate applications. The Controller decides doubts about whether articles form a set, and public inspection of a registered design begins after notification in the Official Journal, so the other three statements are incorrect.
