Devinder Singh Rawat

With over 16 years of experience, Devinder is routinely involved in complex pharmaceutical and life sciences contentious patent matters. His plate of pre-grant in the chosen domain is full, although post-grant activities equally engage him. He has been involved in several pre-grant and post-grant oppositions before the Indian Patent Office involving several new chemical entities. He has been instrumental in providing keen insights and critical review of the subject matter of cases before various judicial and quasi-judicial forums in India, such as the High Court. He regularly appears before the Intellectual Property Appellate Board.

He delivers end to end patent strategy and services to his clients. He is heavily involved in patent prosecution and patent analytics including patentability and freedom to operate searches and opinions. Swift patent approval translates into clients getting a better value proposition through monetization during the stipulated 20-year patent lifespan. That’s the biggest bonanza clients get when they knock on the doors of Anand and Anand, believes Devinder.

He has co-authored the Indian chapter in Global Patent Litigation: How and Where to Win and the Indian Chapter dealing with ‘Organization and financing of healthcare’ in Getting the Deal Through – Life Sciences 2019.
