Copyright Registration
Copyright is a intellectual property like trademark and patents. Copyright registration is granted under Copyright Act, 1957. The copyright registration makes you legal owner of your creative work in respect of books, paintings, music, website, etc. Once you have Copyright registration, the creative work of the author cannot be copied by other person. The same can be used only with specific and prior permission of owner of copyright. The author can file case against the person who uses the same without his permission. The Copyrights registration protects the rights of the owner of copyright from infringement.

It offers a bunch of rights – communication to the public, rights of reproduction, adaptation, and translation of the work.
