Dear All,

Please tell me how to get the copyright registration done for a website in India?

Also, the content of a website keeps changing each day, how does one constantly keep getting a copyright each day?

Waiting for an early reply.

Thanks in Advance.

And I know that there is an automatic copyright protection, but I'm still interested in getting the legal registration for the copyright. Please help.

As per my knowledge there is no such requirement to get a copyright registration for a site.............Just you have to put a copy right symbol along with stating that Author holds the copyright of material been published here and copying or unauthorised distribution is prohibited.......or excerpt can be published with written permission of author........

Website and blog copyright registration can be done both offline and online.

Fill out the application form with the prescribed fee
Please upload all related documents
As soon as the application is submitted, a diary number will be provided for further communication
There will be a search process and an objections process. If an objection is filed- a reply will be filed and a hearing will be scheduled. The examiner will initiate the scrutiny process if there are no objections
Check for discrepancies will be carried out, and in case of discrepancies, the applicant should resolve the same, and in case everything is in order, registration of copyright should be made, and the same will be entered in the database.
