Abstract:

In India, Geographical Indication (GI) has emerged as a major kind of IP rights issue. It gives the product's manufacturers or producers from that specific area the ability to utilize the indication. This implies that they also possess the legal authority to forbid the use of any sign or name that lacks specific attributes guaranteed by the Geographical Indication of that specific product. GI is a useful instrument for creating jobs in rural areas and generating revenue from exports. In order to establish a brand in foreign markets, the regulatory framework must place greater emphasis on quality control criteria. The paper has been focused on the GI product currents trends in India, Telangana and the challenges faced.
