Answer:
Explanation:
Defined as the property right of an original work owned by an individual, a copyright is fixed in a physical medium of expression, thus enabling the holder to exclusively reproduce, distribute, perform, and display the copyrighted work.
The said work may include anything under literature, music, art, photography, cinema/film or even a computer programme, etc. Unlike a trademark, copyright just has a single symbol i.e. ©. The symbol can be placed on the original piece of work that has been created.
Process of registration.
Step 1: Filing the Application
Along with the requisite fee, an application needs to be submitted either in DD/IPO. Once this application is filed, a diary number is generated and issued to the applicant.
Step 2: Examination
There is a minimum wait of 30 days for recording and analysing any objections that may come up against the copyright application
a. In case of no Objection:
The application goes ahead for scrutinization by an examiner. This scrutiny gives rise to two options:
1. In case of discrepancy found during scrutiny:
A letter of discrepancy is sent to the applicant letter is generated and sent to the applicant.
Based on the reply from the applicant, the registrar conducts a hearing of the alleged discrepancy row
Once the discrepancies are sorted during the hearing, the extracts of the same are sent to the applicant for him/her to register the copyright
2. In case of zero discrepancy:
This would mean that the copyright application fulfils all criterion required for the copyright. The applicant is then given the nod to go ahead with the registration of the same.
(If the registration is not approved, then the applicant received a letter of rejection)
b. In case of an objection filed:
While we listed above the scenarios of ‘no objections’, in case one is faced with an objection, the following proceedings take place:
Authorities send out letters to the two concerned parties, trying to convince them to take back the objection
After requisite replies from the third party, the registrar conducts a hearing
Depending on whether the registrar accepts the reply, the procedure takes shape
1. If the application is accepted:
The application being accepted means that the objection has been rejected. The application goes ahead for scrutinization by an examiner. This scrutiny gives rise to two options:
2. In case of discrepancy found during scrutiny:
A letter of discrepancy is sent to the applicant letter is generated and sent to the applicant.
Based on the reply from the applicant, the registrar conducts a hearing of the alleged discrepancy row
Once the discrepancies are sorted during the hearing, the extracts of the same are sent to the applicant for him/her to register the copyright.
c. In case of zero discrepancy:
This would mean that the copyright application fulfils all criterion required for the copyright. The applicant is then given the nod to go ahead with the registration of the same. (If the registration is not approved, then the applicant received a letter of rejection)
d. If application is rejected:
In case this happens, then the applicant receives a rejection letter that marks the end of the copyright procedure
Step 3: Registration
As can be seen from the aforementioned steps, the registration solely depends on the registrar. Once everything is cleared from the registrar’s end, the applicant received the copyright and can legally exercise all rights that come with the owner of that copyright.
Copyright is a form of the intellectual property law. It is registered to protect original pieces of work such as music, art, literature, cinema/film, photography or a computer program. There are in-depth categories that can be registered for copyright by the creators. It will give exclusive and complete rights to the creator of the work.
