New Delhi, Jun 06 (ANI): While interacting with youth innovators associated with start-ups, Prime Minister Narendra Modi discussed the simplified processes of trademark and patent registrations. PM Modi said, "There was a time when 75 forms were needed to fill in trademark registration. Now it has been reduced to 8. And if anyone is applying online, a discount of 10 percent will also be given. The rate of registering trademark has gone high by 3 times in the last 3 years. Similarly, during 2013-14, only 4000 patents were filed. But as recorded until February 2018, around 11500 patents have been filed."
