    Geographical Indications of Products in the Global Level and Challenges of India
    (Journal of Research in Business and Management, 2024-04-14) Jaffar, Mohamed
    A geographical indication (GI) is a symbol used on goods with a specific geographical origin. The sign used in the specified goods possesses qualities, reputation or characteristics attributable to their place of origin. The GI symbol or identity applies to various natural, agricultural, or manufactured products. Such identification conveys an assurance of quality and uniqueness attributable to its origin in a particular geographical locality, region or country. GIs confer to their legitimate users the exclusive rights to use this distinctive designation, which grants it additional economic value. With this GI recognition, the product gains reputation and goodwill worldwide, leading to premium prices in national and international markets. The economic benefits of GI recognition are not just significant, but crucial for a country like India, which is primarily agriculture-oriented. Unfair business practices that violate geographical indications lead to loss of revenue for the genuine owners of the GI and India. If the GIs are not adequately protected, then they may be exploited by dishonest commercial operators. This article highlights the challenges faced by India in getting maximum registrations of GI, and the potential economic benefits that could be unlocked with successful GI recognition.

    India is the most populated country in the world and has the largest population, amounting to 580 million young people in the age group 5-24. Indian education sector is estimated to reach U.S. $225 billion by F.Y. 2025 from U.S. $117 billion in F.Y. 2020. The online education segment in India is also increasing, with a CAGR of 20 per cent. Higher education institutions offer opportunities to pursue undergraduate and postgraduate courses and provide R&D facilities, which will enhance people’s standard of living. “Every higher educational institution has to prepare its annual development plan to meet the specific academic mission of the institution. The plan must focus on academic excellence, research, innovation, etc. The synergy effects of international collaborations make education more meaningful and change the institution more purposeful” (Anagha Ganesh, 2024).
