PATENT FARCE
Times of India Newsitem, New Delhi 28th July World Accord on Patent
Protection urged, for amendment in existing Indian Patent Act 1970 for
signing Paris Convention in International Patent Act which will result
in Indian Chemical Industry to sign it's own dekth warrant with a smile.
Dear Sir,
We understand that Govt.of India has been approached by 95 member countries
of the general agreement on tariffs and Trade (GATT) and they are pressurising
Govt.of India to sign Paris Convention, which will result in amendment in Indian
Patent Act 1970 and if govt.agrees to the same, then it means Indian Pesticide
Industry is being asked to sign it's own death warrant with a smile. In simple
terms, the Paris Convention, which governs patent laws in 96 countries operates
as a structure designed to ensure and perpetuate the monopoly and stranglehold
of major patent holders, mostly from the advanced Western nations. In theory,
it 'Protects' the 'intellectual property' of inventors. But the era of the single
inventor went out with the Victorian age, and holding the stage now are rapacious
multinationals which have established themselves as supra-government at the
global level.
The Indian Patent AcL has ensured lower prices of medicines in India, -compared
to Western countries which are members of the Paris Convention. In a comparative
study of the retail price of 54 drugs, it was observed that world prices of
most of these drugs were 100-200 percent higher than the prices in India. Today,
the per kilogram cost of bulk drugs like Temoxifen and Tobramycin is US $ 3,000
when purchased from non-patented countries. If India were to purchase the same
from Patented Countries - which she would haveto on acceeding to the Paris
Convention - they would cost US $ 15,000 for just one kilogram.
The prices of crucial food, drug and medicinal products would shoot through
the roof of Indian purchasing power. A single medicinal product like Cephalexin
(500mg) could cost as much as 2,903 per cent more than what it does now.
An immeasurable array of Indian Industries would suffer grievous damage, if
not. total shutdown, through the agency of their own legal system. In short,
a return to colonial structures operating against Indians in their own country.

Ref. No. :
Oddly enough, the protagonists of the Convention in India are trying to use
the argument that when communist nationals like the USSR can become members
of the Paris Convention, so can India. There is something ridiculous about the
champions of 'free enterprise' and market economy touting the communist nations
as medels. The analogy is nevertheless utterly bogus.
Socialist states have nothing to lose by being party to the Convention. Infrin
gement of patent rights by them can result in no retribution since their judicial
structures are based on the antithesis of proprietary rights. This is obviously
not the case in India. Besides, would those offering the membership of 11
socialist states as an excuse, be prepared to emulate the other features of
these nations-such as the abolition of private ownership of the means of
production ?
A corollary to this argument, recently advanced in the edit page of The Times
of India, is that when as many as 96 countries have signed, including nations
with an advanced industrial base, why not India? Firstly, the numbers logic
is in itself of dubious virtue. The large number of nations which have signed
the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) hasnot led to India doing the same-and
correctly so. Besides, which are the countries that make up these numbers?
We also like to put forward our following views, which you are requested to
consider before taking any decision in this matter. We are strongly against
signing of Paris Convention and any change in Indian Patent Act, 1970.
1)
Present Patent Act 1970:
In India under the present Patent Act no product patent is granted for
products relating to medicines, food and chemicals. It is also clarified
that chemicals includes alloys, optical glass, semi-conductors and inter
metallic compounds which are produced by chemical process. This Act has
in the past helped in area of medical -health and also in agriculture.
The Argument that, because no patent is available of Agricultural chemicals,
is coming in the way of bringing new products is absolutely incorrect.
As a matter of fact today India has developed enough expertise to develop
any new chemical without the help of foreign technicians. This has been
achieved only because the product patent and protection was not given to
new products in India. It has been proved that India can produce any new
agrochemicals (Pesticides) of boiler qualityand much cheaper than multina
tional companies who. claim their patents.
The poorest farmers in the world are in India andlo get a better output
of .the agriculture produce we need more pesticides which are cheaper and
within the reach of the poor farmers of India.

Date ;
Whenever there is a monopoly of pesticides, it has been noticed that
multi-national companies exploited the situation. We have examples of many
pesticides like Fenvalerate, Cypermethrin, which when they were imported
were very expensive, but after Indian companies have started manufacturing
and supplying to the Indian farmers and exporting, these multinational
companies have reduced their price to nearly l/3rd orfth of their earlier
selling price in the world.
In some of the pesticides, we are told that India has done great service
to the developing countries (Mexico, Pakistan, etc) by offering at reason
able price.
It has been noticed that even in other countries where there is no patent,
these multinational companies are having a cartel and exploiting these
poor farmers in the developing countries. We can give a number of examples,
in countries like Pakistan, Mexico and Africa, they are selling these
pesticides at 4 times the export price to other countries. They have cartels
and monopolies.
If we give a patent protection to some of the big multinational companies,
there is avery big risk that the situation may be exploited by them. There
are number of exampleswhere a number of multinational companies have been
caught exploiting the monopoly and charging exhorbitent price to the
customers. Some of the leading companies in U.K., Switzerland and USA have
paid heavy penalties because they were caught over charging the consumer.
If Patent protection is given to them, these big companies are bound to
exploit the poor Indian farmers. In Western countries there are systems
by which they can check and punish the guilty, but in India we may find
it very difficult to punish the exploiting companies as our administration
is not strong enough to catch them. Our MR’l'P doesnot provide penalties
for cartel. They can only order them not to do it again.
2)
Fair Competition to make product available at the right price.
At the moment in absence of product patenl there is healthy competition
amongst Technical Grade pesticide manufacturers.manufactured by Indian
Chemical Industries with multinationals operating in India. The moment
any new compounds are manufactured in the world and are likely to be
introduced in India, Indian companies are capable to produce the said
technical grade pesticides within given time of 6 to 12 months. For e.g.
Synthetic Pyrethroid such as Fenvalerate Technical, Cypermethrin Technical,
Decamethrin Tech,Isoproturon (Herbicide), Phorate, Endosulfan. Due to fair
competition Fenval-erat e 20% EC when it was introduced to the farmers in Ind
it was sold in 1985 at approx. Rs6(X)/- per lit, when there was hardly 1 to
2 manufacturers of thcsaid commodity. During the process of lime, many
Indian companies started manufacturing said product and price was brought
down to 185/- to 200/-- rupees per lit.. II required, we can produce necessa

documentary evidence and as you know, in last 3 to 4 years cost of all
inputs, govt, taxes, packing material and wages have gone up whereas the
cost of Fenvalerate has gone down which itself is self explanatory to our
strong case to have fair competition in the market by not patenting the
product and <5>ur present patent act doesnot require any amendment.
3)
Grant of Patent Product.
If any product patents are granted it will be harmful to the farming
community as there will be one source of supply for 20 years
(Patented period) and manufacturer will definitely have monopoly
and they will charge any price which they like. It will also result
in monopoly and restrictive trade practice which govt.of India
do not promote or agree.
4)
Role of National Chemical Laboratory, C.S.I.R. & Regional Research
laboratory :
.
As we have already advanced in Chemical Industry, today our tech
nocrats and scientists are in position to manufacture a particular
pesticide and make it available to the farmers. Even our National
Chemical Laboratory, Regional Research Laboratory, Hyderabad,
Jorhat, are developing a process to manufacture a new pesticide
and if the product patent is given then there will be a definite
end to the use of all the Indian talents and scientists who would
come to a grinding hault. To give an example, when Fenvaleratewas
manufactured by one Company, and imported the prices were about
Rs.600/- to 650/- per litre and today with fair amount of competi
tion and more than one manufacturer making Fenvalerate the price
has come down to Rs. 185/- to Re.200/- per lit. that means a saving
of 100% to the farmers.
As you know R.R.L. and N.R.D.C. are capable of developing any
technical knowhow for chemicals and technical grade insecticides
within given time of 5 to 12 moths for any new product. For your
ready reference our govt, laboratory R.R.L. has provided technical
knowhowto the folloing multinationals.

infrastructure which has been created by great efforts, in a period
of time, will be totally a waste as multinational industries new
product in the country will be protected for 20 years which will
not promote this laboratory to develop any knowhow for Indian
manufacturers or entrepreneurs.
5)
Violation of Patent Act by multinationals in India as per the will
and wish.
Though these multinational companies are clamouring for changing
the Indian Patent Law, at the same time, they are taking the full
advantage of the Indian laws and are formulating and marketing
a patented product. To give an example, BASF, BAYER, SANDOZ are
marketing Synthetic Pyrethroids like Cypermethrin, because the
Indian Patent law allows while in their own country they are not
marketing. All the multinationals use patent act as per the
suitability of their production line as well as provide all over
the world. Wherever they see good market they patent product and
they exploit the market with profit margin more than 500% and above
on the newly introduced product. So it is not atall in the interest
of the country to have Patent Actand to join Paris convention.
There is no need to amend 1970 Indian Patent Act.
6)
Disadvantage of patented product Thimet 10-G case study of U.S.A.
Let us consider Thimet 10-G (Phorate Granules) which are very
effective granular insecticide for rice, cotton, vegetables and
today with Patent U.S.A, only 1 company is marketing Thimet granules
and are charging their own price whilst in India there are 3
manufacturers of technical and more than one dozen formulators
by which prices have come down and the farmer is getting Phorate
Granules at a very reasonable rate.
7)
Huge drain of Foreign Exchange :
If Patent Act is amended and Paris Convention is signed it will
give protection to the foreign S multinational manufacturers for
20 years and it will result in heavy drain of foreign exchange
by way of imports and royalties on patented product which would
inflate nation's import bill to unimaginable proportions. The
monopolistic rights it would confer on the multinationals of
developed nations which use technology as an instrument of both
incomcind exploi tat ion would liquidate the present multichannel
imports option that the country exploits, and force the purchase
of products from patented countries, very often at prices as much
as >00 percent higher than those currently obtaining.

UTILISATION 01-' SPARE CAPACITY IN INDIA WILL BE STOPPED IF PARTS CONVENTION
IS SIGNED.
As Govt.of India knows very wel1 that the chemical industry and Pesticide
industry is over licenced and are in excess throughout India due to which
govt.of India has stopped new manufacturing licence under D.G.T.D. or
in small scale sector since 1973 onwards. In many sectors industries
are having spare capacity. At the moment in S.S.I. sector capacity
utilisation is hardly 30% to 40% in respect of installed production capa
city. Many industries are striving to utilise their entire installed
capacity to produce more which helps them to make product available to
the Indian farmers at reasonable and right price. If, govt, of India
by mistake signs Paris Convention which results in amendment of Patent
Act which will simultaneously result in amendment of Patent Act which
will simultaneously result in huge generation of idle capacity because
once the product patent are granted there will not be any 2nd manufacturer
till patent expires which in this case will be 20 years., which means
if any multinational industries enter patented product in India no Indian
manufacturer can develop necessary technical knowhow to produce the same
for 20 years under the said patent protection. As we have huge
infrastructure with C.S.I.R., N.C.L. and various R & D activities are
carried out by chemical industries to develop the product knowhow the
same will be completely ruined and will have to be scrapped as under
Patent Act no one can manufacture till Patent expires. All these factors
will create huge non-utilised spare capacity and industry will definitely
start losting their production and will lead to great financial loss.
11)
Signing of Paris Convention and amendment in Patent Act will result in
monopoly and restrictive trade practice by the multinationals under Patent
Protection.
At the moment in absence of the product patent there is healthy compe
tition amongst technical grade manufacturers and also in chemical indus
tries and pharmaceutical industries with multinationals operating in
India the moment any new compounds are manufactured in the world and
are likely to be introduced in India Indian companies are capable to
produce the said Technical grade pesticides within given time of 6 to
12 months. For e.g. Synthetic Pyrethroid such as Fenvalerate Technical
Cypcrmethrin Technical, Decamethrin Tech, Isoproturon (Herbicide),
Phorate, Endosulfan as mentioned previously. So there is no need to sign
Par i s Convent i on.
12)
Foreign Exchange earnings and Export will be hampered due to change in
Patent Act or signing Paris Convention.

We also like to state that if the product is registered under protected
registration and if the product is registered under Patent Act by multi
nationals it will definitely monopolise the entire manufacturing and
marketing of the said product, and will not export the said items from
our country, the reason being that their principals abroad meet the export
requirement of the said product and they will not allow any of their
subsidiaries or branches to export the products from India. This type
of protected registration will therefore completely stop the export of
pesticides and not a single Indian company or small scale industry will
be able to export any pesticide for a period of 20 years under Patent
Act and Paris Convention, resulting in decline in export earnings and
foreign exchange. So we strongly protest against the said Paris Convention
and amendment of the Patent Act.
In absence of the Patent Act all indigenous manufacturers and exporters
are developing various technology to produce the product manufactured
by multinationals in India and today's industries export by indigenous
manufacturer is more than 1500 crores in chemicals, out of which 60 crores
in pesticides compared to the multinationals which are hardly exporting
3 to 4 crores in general currency area. The entire export of the country
will collapse if Patent Act is amended or Paris Convention is signed
by India.
13)
Restriction on Import of Indian Industries in case of Patented product
under Paris Convention.
At the moment Indian chemical industries, Pharmaceutical industries and
pesticide industries are allowed to import their raw materials as well
as various inputs in manufacturing activities. The moment Patent Act
is amended the above imjort will go from Indian citizen and industry.
Once the product is patented by multinational no other Indian company
will be able to import the said product or market the said product in
domestic market. The product imported or manufactured under Patent by
multinationals will be monopolised to exploit the market by charging
higher prices to the consumer because there will not be any local compe
titor from any sector. The consumer will have to pay the price decided
by the multinationals as they will be alone in the field and their will
not be any fair competition and the consumer will have to pay the price
much higher and govt, will not be able to help the citizens of India
to pay fair price for their industries.
Our Association is representing around 180 pesticide manufacturers all
over the country and we have put forward our views to alert the citizens
of India and Indian industries and various govt, departments and
Ministries those who are directly or indirectly involved in the
amendment of the Patent Act as well as signing of Paris Convention.
