Question
Which of the following is not patentable under the
Indian Patents Act, 1970?Solution
Explanation: Section 3(d) of the Indian Patents Act states that the mere discovery of a new form of a known substance which does not result in the enhancement of the known efficacy of that substance is not patentable . This provision was introduced to prevent "evergreening" of patents by pharmaceutical companies and was upheld in the landmark Novartis v. Union of India (2013) case.
Simplify:
(5/6 + 3/4) ÷ (7/8 − 1/3)
81% of 2300 – 34% of 550 = ?
40 of 30% of 220 = ? + 790
What will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following expression?
40% of 150 – ?% of 80 = 25% of 400
6 × 1.8 × 0.25 × 70 = ? + 9.5
500% of (121.8 + 16.4 – 28.2) = ? × 2
(500 × 6 ÷ 10) - (√256 + 8) = ?
Evaluate: 360 ÷ [ {18 − (6×2)} × 5 ] + 72 − 33
What will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following expression?
25% of 2000 – 50% of 500 = 100% of ?
