About Copyright Registration
Copyright registration in India gives monetary rights and benefits to the original creators of literature, art, music, sound recordings, cinematographed films, and broadcasts. This enables the creators to make money from their creations by making copies, performing in public, broadcasting, and issuing copies to the public for various other online uses.
When a creator creates something, a copyright is automatically created. In India, however, the act of copyright registration is important since it gives the creator a legal right to use his or her work in public.
