The Copyright Act, 1957, has been a cornerstone of intellectual property law in India, governing the rights of creators over their literary, dramatic, musical, and artistic works, as well as cinematograph films and sound recordings. Since its enactment, the Act has undergone various amendments to keep pace with technological advancements and international treaties. Originally framed to protect creators' rights in a more traditional media landscape, subsequent reforms have aimed to address challenges posed by evolving technologies, including the digital era.
