FAQ
What does copyright protect and who can claim it?
Copyright protects original works of authorship, including:
- Literary works (books, poems, scripts)
- Musical works and compositions
- Films and cinematographic content
- Artistic works (logos, drawings, paintings)
- Software code and websites
- Photographs, choreography, architecture
The creator or author is generally the first copyright holder, unless the work was created under a contract of employment or as a commissioned work, in which case the employer or client may hold the rights.
How long does copyright last?
In India, the general term of copyright is:
- Lifetime of the author + 60 years after their death (for literary, artistic, musical, and dramatic works)
- 60 years from publication (for cinematographic films, sound recordings, government works, etc.)
This ensures that your creative work remains protected even after your lifetime, benefitting your legal heirs or estate.
Is copyright registration mandatory?
No, copyright is automatically granted the moment an original work is created and fixed in a tangible form (e.g., written down, recorded, saved). However, registration is strongly recommended because it:
- Provides legal proof of ownership
- Acts as evidence in case of disputes or infringement
- Enables you to enforce your rights in court more easily
What can I do if someone copies my work online?
If someone has reproduced, reposted, or used your work without permission:
- We can send a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) takedown notice
- Issue a formal legal notice
- File a lawsuit for copyright infringement and damages
Depending on the scale and nature of the infringement, we’ll guide you on the best remedy — litigation, settlement, or takedown.
