Copyright Infringement – India


Copyright Infringement – India

Intellectual Property Right is a legal right that is granted to owners for a specific period of time to protect their original work from unauthorized use.

Term of Copyright

Copyright protection is granted to the author for a limited period, i.e. Life of Author + 60 Years.

Copyright Infringement

Owners develop new work and get copyright protection to ensure that they can get profit from their efforts. Owner has sole authority either to sell his work or to license it to the third party who can make use of his work but if someone duplicates or reproduces the work of copyright holder without the latter's permission, then this can lead to copyright infringement, in which owner can take legal action against the infringer.
