Summary, etc Sikkim, a small himalayan state in Northeastern India, is widely recognized for its ecological diversity, organic agricultural practices, and rich cultural heritage. Despite possessing several unique and location-specific products, the state remains significantly underrepresented in the Geographical Indication (GI) registry of India. According to the GI Registry, a total of 697 products have been granted GI status, with 1,546 applications filed nationwide till 30th Dec. 2024. Among the 697 GIs listed by the GI Registry Authority, 32 are from the Northeast till date. Out of which, 22 products are from Agriculture-Horticulture sector and the remaining 10 are from handicrafts sector. Till date only 2 products from Sikkim got its GIs tag. Karnataka alone has 46 GI tags, making it one of the states with the highest registrations. This paper seeks to critically examine the current status of Geographical Indications in Sikkim, explore the potential for expanding the state’s GI portfolio, and identify the key challenges that hinder wider recognition and protection of it products. This study contributes to the broader discourse on intellectual property and regional development in India and highlights how Sikkim can leverage its unique identity for sustainable economic and cultural advancement through the effective use of Geographical Indications.- Reproduced
