What is Copyright Registration

Copyright is a legal privilege granted to the creator of artistic works. Copyrights are protected by "The Copyright Act, 1957," which has been amended numerous times. Copyright registration safeguards the owner's rights to their creation. Because the Copyright registration procedure protects the efforts of authors, artists, and designers, the author/writer is encouraged to create more. A copyright is essentially the right not to duplicate someone else's work. A copyright grants the subject's owner exclusive ownership of his work. If a work is copyrighted, no one may imitate, copy, or reproduce the original work in any way. In India, a copyright term is 60 years. The following works are eligible for copyright protection:
 Music
 Books
 Manuscripts
 Films
 Fashion Designs
 Training Manuals
 Software
Literary Work

The register of the Registrar of Copyrights is divided into 6 categories: 1: Literary works other than computer Programs
2: Musical Works
3: Artistic Works
4: Cinematography Films
5: Sound Recording
