CSIR has already taken lead for implementing majorprovisions suggested in the proposed Indian Bayh-Dolelike Patent Bill for publically funded research:

For example:

Promotion of culture of innovation. Creating awareness about IP. Encouragement of innovation in publicly funded R&D. Encourage IP protection in publicly funded R&D. The rights of the IP arising out of public funded research shall vest with the

government.

Encouragement of utilization of IP for publicly funded R&D. A part of the income arising out of the public funded IP shall be shared with

the creator of the IP.

Attract project funding through patent portfolio. Providing access to innovations for industry. Promote collaboration with industry and non-government organizations.
