In India, copyright refers to the exclusive rights given to creators of literary, artistic, and other creative works to control the use and distribution of their creations. Copyright protection is granted for original works such as books, music, films, software, and other creative works. The copyright owner has the exclusive right to reproduce, distribute, and perform the work, as well as to create derivative works. On the other hand, related rights are a set of exclusive rights granted to performers, producers of sound recordings, and broadcasters, to protect their investment in the creation and distribution of their works. In India, the Copyright Act, 1957, provides protection for related rights. Performers have the right to control the recording, broadcasting, and reproduction of their performances, while sound recording producers have the right to control the reproduction and distribution of their sound recordings. Broadcasters have the right to control the retransmission of their broadcasts. The duration of protection for related rights is shorter than that for copyright, typically 50 years from the end of the year in which the work was published, performed, or broadcast
