Copyright

Due to new competitive markets, innovative ways of doing business and the reach of the Internet, numerous forms of copyrightable material can be created. The Indian Copyright Act, 1957 protects literary works, dramatic works, musical works, artistic works, cinematograph films, photographs, sound recordings, technology-related work such as programs and databases, etc though copyright registration is not mandatory for protection, it is recommended for better protection and enforcement of copyrights.
