Examiner Gurtej Bansal has allowed 602 of 754 decided applications (80%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Gurtej Bansal maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security) spanning two art units. Across 754 disposed applications, 602 were allowed, corresponding to an overall allowance rate of 80%. This rate is calculated from decided cases only and does not include pending filings. The examiner's allowance rate ranges from 64% to 85% across the art units in which the record is substantial, reflecting variation in outcomes within TC 2100.
This pooled record aggregates data from multiple art units within TC 2100, combining different examination areas into a single allowance figure. Pooled statistics describe the examiner's historical record and are not predictive of any specific application's outcome. Individual art units may show different rates; those figures appear in separate sections. An aggregate allowance rate represents past decisions across a diverse group of applications and does not forecast results in any particular case.
These are aggregate statistics from this examiner's past public record — not predictions about any specific application. The per-art-unit figures below show how the record varies across art units. Our approach to patent prosecution →
Each section benchmarks this examiner against that art unit's average. Figures are this examiner's own public record within the art unit; the overall rate above pools them.
Primarily examines input/output (I/O) data transfer, and memory access and allocation.
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 238 decided applications with an interview and 328 without.
Primarily examines computer-aided design (CAD).
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 39 decided applications with an interview and 149 without.
Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Gurtej Bansal has a public record within Technology Center 2100. Statistics are computed from publicly available USPTO records, refreshed on a recurring schedule. This page's data was last updated June 25, 2026. The overall allowance rate is total allowed divided by total decided applications (allowed plus abandoned) across all art units — not an average of the per-art-unit rates; pending applications are excluded. Figures are rounded for display. Pooled sample: 754 applications.

These statistics describe past examiner behavior and do not predict the outcome of any particular application. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Where this page compares an examiner's allowance rate to an art-unit average, that comparison is a factual description of the public record, not a characterization of any individual examiner's conduct or competence.
