What the data says.reading this examiner

Sriharsha Reddy Vangapaty holds a public record in Technology Center 2400 spanning one art unit. Across a small number of decided applications, the examiner's allowance rate is 50%. This figure represents the share of applications in the decided pool (allowed and abandoned combined) relative to total decided applications. The allowance rate is calculated from decided cases only; pending applications are excluded. The record reflects outcomes across the examiner's pooled work in this technology center.

How to read these numbers.

This pooled record aggregates data across all art units where the examiner has decided applications. The allowance rate and other figures describe historical outcomes and do not predict the result of any specific pending application. Pooled statistics combine different art units' subject matter into a single aggregate figure. Individual art-unit records, where available separately, may differ from this overall pool and reflect distinct technical areas.

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 →

Questions about Examiner Sriharsha Reddy Vangapaty

  • What is this examiner's overall allowance rate?
    The allowance rate is 50% across a small number of decided applications in Technology Center 2400. This represents the share of allowed applications within the pool of all decided cases (allowed and abandoned).
  • How many art units does this examiner work in?
    The examiner's public record covers one art unit in TC 2400.
  • Does this allowance rate predict what will happen to my application?
    No. The pooled allowance rate describes past outcomes and is not a prediction of any specific application's outcome. Each application is examined individually on its merits.
  • What does 'decided applications' mean?
    Decided applications include those that have been allowed or abandoned. Pending applications—those still under examination—are not included in the allowance-rate calculation.

METHODOLOGY & DISCLOSURES

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Sriharsha Reddy Vangapaty has a public record within Technology Center 2400. Statistics are computed from publicly available USPTO records, refreshed on a recurring schedule. This page's data was last updated July 22, 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: 58 applications.

Rejection rates. Each §-rate is the share of this examiner's applications that drew at least one office-action rejection in which that statutory ground appears; applications with no rejection on record are excluded, and because grounds can co-occur the four do not sum to 100%. The art-unit figure beside each is the unweighted mean of the per-examiner rates across the art unit, published for §101 and §103 only. Beside the overall allowance rate we show a benchmark: for a single-art-unit examiner it is exactly that art unit's average, labeled “art-unit average”; for an examiner spanning several art units it is the “weighted peer average” — the per-art-unit averages, weighted by this examiner's application count in each — labeled distinctly because it is a blended figure, not any single art unit's average. Both are built from the same per-art-unit averages the panels show.

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.
