This allows the creators to make money from their work by making copies, playing in public,broadcasting, and distributing its copies to the public for various other online uses. Copyright is automatically generated at the moment when the creator produces something. But, the act of copyright registration in India is essential as it provides the creator a legal right in public so that others cannot utilize the creator’s work.
