Intellectual Property Firm
Protect your original creative works – literary, artistic, musical, cinematic and software – with comprehensive copyright services.
Copyright is a form of intellectual property protection granted to the creators of original literary, artistic, dramatic, musical, and other creative works. In India, copyright protection arises automatically upon creation of an original work, but registration provides significant evidentiary and legal advantages in enforcement.
Copyright in India is governed by the Copyright Act, 1957 (as amended). It gives creators exclusive rights to reproduce, distribute, perform, display, and create derivative works from their original creations for a specified period – generally the lifetime of the author plus 60 years.
We review your work to confirm its eligibility for copyright protection and advise on the best strategy for registration and protection.
We prepare the copyright application, including all required statements, declarations, and supporting documents.
We file the application with the Copyright Office and obtain a diary number, which is issued on the same day of filing.
The Copyright Office issues a 30-day waiting notice for third parties to raise any objections to the registration.
After the waiting period and examination, the Copyright Office issues the registration certificate, typically within 6–12 months.
Your creative work deserves robust legal protection. Contact LawNetics for comprehensive copyright services.
