Know the Basics

What Is IP Licensing, and Why Does It Matter?

Most Indian MSMEs know they own a trademark, design, patent, or copyright – but few realise that IP can generate ongoing income without ever being sold.

Licensing means giving someone else permission to use your IP – to manufacture, sell, or distribute under your brand or technology – in exchange for a fee or royalty, while you keep ownership. This is fundamentally different from an assignment, where ownership itself changes hands permanently. Confusing the two is one of the most common, and costly, mistakes MSMEs make when structuring these deals.

Licensing (This Page)

  • You retain ownership of the IP
  • Permission is granted for a defined term, territory, and scope
  • You earn ongoing royalty or fee income
  • You can license the same IP to multiple parties, if structured that way

Assignment (A Different Service)

  • Ownership transfers permanently to the buyer
  • Usually a one-time payment, not ongoing royalties
  • You no longer control how the IP is used afterward
  • See our separate Ownership Transfer Deed / Assignment Deed plan for this
The Single Most Important Fact

Written Agreements Aren't Optional – Especially for Copyright

This is one legal requirement most Indian MSMEs have never heard of, and it can invalidate an entire deal if missed.

Fee-Lock Guarantee

The price you pay today is the price you pay for this predefined process – no cost escalation. This guarantee covers your fee; it does not guarantee that the other party will agree to sign or accept the terms, since negotiation outcomes depend on both parties.

Why This Plan Is the Smart Step

  • Maximises the commercial value of your IP while protecting your core ownership rights.
  • Clear payment, audit, and reporting terms reduce the risk of future disputes over what's owed.
  • Fast turnaround with pragmatic, commercially sound drafting suited to MSME needs.
  • A written agreement isn't just good practice – for copyright and trademark licensing, it's a legal requirement.

Why One Complete Plan?

  • Most providers charge separately for drafting, revisions, and execution guidance.
  • Our plan is a single, transparent price – two rounds of revisions included, not billed separately.
  • Every step is covered – drafting, royalty structuring, revisions, and execution support.
  • You can also avail this Complete Plan offline at our branch offices, with direct one-to-one coordination.
Value Comparison

The Real Cost: Why Our Price Is Better

Our pricing is simple and honest. Our one-time, all-inclusive fee is the only fee you will ever pay for every step in the package.

The Piecemeal Trap

Many providers charge separately for the initial draft, each round of revisions, and execution guidance – so the quoted "starting price" rarely reflects what a properly negotiated agreement actually costs.

A generic template license – especially one missing quality control or audit clauses – is one of the most common, costly mistakes businesses make when licensing their IP.

Our Complete Plan

A single, transparent ₹14,900 one-time payment – no hidden charges, no future surprises.

Your agreement is custom-drafted by the IP Firm you authorise, with two rounds of revisions and execution guidance included from the start.

Is This Right For You?

Who This Plan Is For

We'd rather you buy this with a clear head than assume it's for everyone.

This Plan Is Right For You If:
  • You own registered or established IP and want to licence it for ongoing revenue
  • You want a partner to commercialise your IP while you retain ownership
  • You need clear royalty, payment, and audit terms to avoid future disputes
  • You're planning a franchise, distribution, or technology transfer arrangement
You May Not Need This If:
  • You want to permanently sell or transfer ownership – see our Ownership Transfer Deed / Assignment Deed plan instead
  • You don't yet have your IP registered – a licence is far stronger when built on registered rights, so consider registering first
  • You need an employee or vendor confidentiality agreement instead – see our Trade Secret / Confidentiality Agreements plan

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between licensing and assigning my IP?
Licensing means granting permission to use your IP for a defined term and scope while you retain ownership and earn ongoing royalties. Assignment means permanently transferring ownership, typically for a one-time payment. If you want to sell your IP outright, see our separate Ownership Transfer Deed / Assignment Deed plan.
Is a written agreement legally required, or can we just verbally agree?
For copyright specifically, a written and signed agreement is a strict legal requirement under Section 30 of the Copyright Act – an oral licence is not valid. Trademark and patent licensing similarly require written agreements. A verbal understanding offers no real legal protection for either party.
Does a trademark licence need to be recorded with the Trademark Registry?
Recordal as a "Registered User" is not mandatory, but it's advisable, since it gives the licensee expanded legal rights and reduces uncertainty. Your post-execution advisory covers whether this applies to your specific agreement.
What if we need more than two rounds of revisions?
Two rounds of revisions are included in your Complete Plan fee. If your negotiation needs further rounds beyond that, our team can discuss arranging additional support separately.
Are there tax implications for royalty payments?
Royalty payments often carry tax implications, such as TDS obligations, depending on the nature and parties involved. This is a matter for your chartered accountant or tax advisor – it falls outside the scope of IP agreement drafting, though we're happy to flag it as something to discuss with them alongside your agreement.
Who actually drafts the agreement?
The IP Firm you authorise drafts, revises, and finalises your agreement, based on your written authorisation. ipronline.com coordinates the process, documentation, and communication – it does not itself draft the legal agreement, since it is a technology platform, not a law firm.
Does this plan include a TROM dashboard or login account?
No. TROM dashboard features are part of our separate Trademark Registration & Online Management plan. Your agreement drafting is coordinated directly with your case coordinator.
Is ipronline.com a law firm?
No. ipronline.com is a technology platform providing process management, documentation and workflow tools. It is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. Your agreement is drafted by an authorised IP Law Firm upon your written consent.
