The vast majority of India's new companies are in the IT/information based area and licensed innovation, explicitly licenses, are vital to this information based economy.
India's positioning in Worldwide Development File has climbed 35 positions which is a "noteworthy advancement, yet the quantity of licenses conceded in India is as yet a portion contrasted with licenses allowed in China, the US, Japan and Korea", as per the Review, postponed in the Parliament on Monday.
