About ITMU

Institute Technology Management Unit (ITMU) is the unit set up in the ICAR institutions for management of IP/deemed IP and transfer/commercialization of technologies.

ITMU, ICAR-IIHR takes care of the licensing of ICAR-IIHR developed technologies to public organizations/ private companies and individuals. Licensing of technologies is done on non-exclusive basis, without royalty for a period of five years through signing of a licence agreement between ICAR-IIHR and the client. ITMU works with Agrinnovate India Limited, New Delhi (the commercial face of ICAR) to license technologies having license fee of more than one lakh.  Regulatory compliances like approval of National Biodiversity Authority (NBA), Karnataka Biodiversity Board (KBB) and Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers Rights Authority (PPV&FRA) are adhered to in commercialization of technologies.   The licensee/company will have to get license from CIB&RC, Faridabad for commercial production of biopesticides licensed from ICAR-IIHR.

ITMU can be contacted via Email: itmu.iihr@icar.gov.in

Procedure for technology licensing from ICAR-IIHR:

The transfer of technology involves payment of license fee +18% GST followed by the signing of license agreement.
