USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 11 granted patents across 18 technology areas, active 2017–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; IDENTIFICATION).
The verdict
Indian holds 11 US patents across 18 technology areas, rank #24,512 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Indian Institute OF Technology Guwahati has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2017 and 2025, placing Indian Institute OF Technology Guwahati at rank #24,512 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 18 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; IDENTIFICATION). As a Foreign Corporation, Indian Institute OF Technology Guwahati is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Indian sits between Immodulon Therapeutics Limited (11 patents, rank #24,508) and Infar Industrial Co., Ltd. (11 patents, rank #24,516) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 36.3/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 10 grants, compared with 1 in the 2015–2019 window, a +900% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Indian Institute OF Technology Guwahati's 12.3 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 18 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Indian Institute OF Technology Guwahati against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Indian's 11 grants land it in the top 47% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
