Copyright Registration
Copyright is a legal right which extends an exclusive ownership right to the creators of literature, musical and artistic work, dramatics and sound recordings and also the film producers, is governed by Copyright Act,1957. However, even the businesses and start-ups can opt for copyright registration regarding their unique instruction manuals, product literature/content and user guides. As a general rule, copyright is possessed by the one who creates it, but at times even the employers of the creators or the person who is explicitly authorised to work are eligible to own a copyright. Copyright not only provides safety from infringers by restoring the uniqueness of the work, rather it provides a gamut of rights including the rights of reproduction, adaptation, and translation of the work and communication to the public.
