FAQs
Is copyright registration compulsory?
No. Copyright subsists automatically on creation. Registration is evidentiary — it gives you a certificate that is far easier to rely on in court than proving authorship from scratch.
Can software be registered?
Yes, as a literary work, with the source code submitted in the prescribed manner.
