It has been long recognized that innovation performance varies considerably across nations. This observation rises immediately to important set of questions. The land mark judgment of "Diamond vs. Chakrabarty 1980 on genetically engineered bacterium changed the status of biotechnology. It has been 36 years since this landmark decision, from that time it affected the lives of virtually everyone on earth and continuous to be in the news of benefits and controversies. This revolution in biotechnology all over the world has resulted in the issuance of thousands of patents, the formation of hundreds of new companies. The objective of this study is in the context of patentability in Biotechnology, analysis of the current patent filing situation in India, PCT filing trends in the IPR. The second objective of the study is to observer the innovation performance of India on the basis of GII report 2016 in comparison with different geographic regions G7, BRICS and SAARC.
