What renewal costs will I pay for a patent filed in India today and granted in 5 years?

AI assistant

Two things change the number for India before I run this: the filing route, and whether you qualify as a discounted entity, which pays a fifth of the regular fee. Renewals only become payable once granted, so a grant five years out sets when they start.

National filing, regular entity.

iPify Priced 15 renewal events

AI assistant

iPify prices INR 384,000 (≈ EUR 3,466.72) in official renewal fees over the 20-year term. India's annuities accrue from the 3rd year but fall due only after grant, so the first bill lands at grant: years 3 to 6 come due together, INR 16,000 by 2031-12-14. The annuity then steps up, INR 12,000 a year for years 7 to 10, INR 24,000 for years 11 to 15 and INR 40,000 for years 16 to 20, each with a six-month grace period and a year of restoration behind it. Schedule 1 of the Indian Patent Rules, pricing data version 20260908+b1be76a5a3d7.

Indian patent, granted in five years

Fifteen official renewal fees total INR 384,000 (≈ EUR 3,466.72) between 2031 and 2045.

What if it is only granted in 10 years?

iPify Re-priced with grant in 2036

AI assistant

The same INR 384,000 (≈ EUR 3,466.72). India charges every annuity from the 3rd year whenever grant comes, so a later grant moves the bill rather than shrinking it: years 3 to 11 come due together, INR 88,000 by 2036-12-14, then INR 24,000 a year for years 12 to 15 and INR 40,000 for years 16 to 20. Ten payments instead of fifteen.

And if we qualify as a discounted entity?

iPify Checked who qualifies, then re-priced as a discounted entity

AI assistant

You qualify if the applicant is a natural person, a startup, a small entity or a university; that is the condition iPify holds for India's discounted rate. Then it is INR 76,800 (≈ EUR 693.34) for the same 15 renewals, one fifth of the regular schedule: the first bill at grant drops to INR 3,200 and the 20th-year annuity to INR 8,000. The dates do not move.

We plan to file one patent family per quarter in GB, DE, FR and JP for the next three years. What renewal budget does that commit us to over ten years?

iPify Checked what GB, DE, FR and JP need to price a renewal

AI assistant

Four offices, three fee logics. GB, DE and FR count renewals from the filing date, so the plan alone fixes their timing; GB and DE halve the fee under a licence of right. JP counts from grant, and the fee grows with the number of claims; small entities pay less and the first three years can go as one lump sum. Before I send this to iPify: direct national filings in all four, or an EP application validated in GB, DE and FR? When does the first family go in? How many claims should I assume in Japan, and does any licence of right or entity discount apply? Grant dates I can leave to iPify to project.

Direct national filings, first family on 1 October 2026. Ten claims, regular entity, no licence of right, and project the grant dates.

AI assistant

That is twelve families, 48 national cases filed quarterly from 2026-10-01 to 2029-07-01. Sending them to iPify as a ten-year forecast from today.

iPify Priced 48 planned filings and 288 renewals through 2036-09-14

AI assistant

288 official renewal fees totalling EUR 22,920, GBP 8,880 and JPY 1,023,600, ≈ EUR 39,002.49 at the recorded exchange rates. The first fee falls due 2027-10-31 and the last inside the horizon 2036-07-31. Grant dates are projected three years after each filing and every projection is on the assumptions list, with the claim count and entity status you gave me; give me real grant dates and I re-run the budget.

First reactions

Overheard in our beta demos

We put the beta in front of IP professionals before launch. These are their words, not ours. (We couldn’t resist replying.)

I hope you’re gonna charge for this.

Sorry to disappoint, it’s free.

I tried to just ask a new random AI assistant, can you give me a forecast of fees? And it just made everything up.

That’s why we’ve built something you can rely on.

Why use iPify’s MCP server

Answers you can trace to the source

You need fees, deadlines and an answer you can trust. Your AI assistant asks, and iPify’s renewal engine calculates them across 111 jurisdictions. What comes back is iPify’s own result, with every input and assumption open to check.

Key benefits

One conversation, from question to report

Ask for a forecast, compare scenarios, then have your assistant prepare the client report. All in the same chat.

Displayed by your assistant, written by iPify

Open the result and check it case by case, parameter by parameter: official fees, dates, the assumptions applied and the source revision behind them.

One case or the whole portfolio

Get annual renewal budgets and total costs over your chosen forecast period. Spend your time reviewing the forecast, not assembling it from spreadsheets, websites and emails.

Connect it yourself

Add iPify to your AI assistant and sign in with your email. No code to write. The setup steps are right below.

Ask your assistant to calculate patent and design renewal fees, deadlines and portfolio forecasts. iPify clients go further: their assistant works directly with the cases already on iPify, so every forecast carries the official fees, iPify’s service fees and the fees they charge their own clients. Nothing to rework or repackage by hand.

Questions

Got a question?

We have answered the most common questions below. If yours is not here, get in touch.

No. You do not need an iPify account to use the server from your AI assistant, but your usage will be limited to 10 requests per day and to public official fees and deadlines only. Sign in with your email and you will receive a one-time password; that does not open an account. If you do have an iPify account, which is exclusively limited to IP professionals, you can also access total renewal costs, including iPify's service fees, for your clients' cases from within your AI assistant. An iPify account is free. Learn more about our IP maintenance service.

Ask your AI assistant to turn the data returned by iPify into the output you need: a client report, a spreadsheet, a chart or another visual. For example, ask it to create a downloadable spreadsheet or a report with the sources and assumptions included. The available file formats depend on your AI assistant. You do not need to extract the example panel to work with the data.

The iPify MCP server is built on the Model Context Protocol, an open standard, so it should work with any MCP-compatible AI assistant, not just the ones listed here. We have written setup instructions for Claude and ChatGPT, since that is what most of our clients use today. Using something else? Get in touch and we will help you get it connected.
