https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=379182 Section 107A of the Patents Act permits making, using, selling, importing and exporting a patented product when the activity is undertaken solely for development and submission of information required for regulatory approval in India or abroad, and such conduct is not infringement merely because it crosses territorial borders. The provision is a distinct special enactment reflecting a separate legislative policy, not a mere proviso subordinated to Section 48.
