3 Mr. Lakshmi Kumaran, India: Summary of the Law The ownership of the copyright over any work vis-à-vis employer and employee is governed by Section 17 of the Copyright Act, As per Section 17, as a general rule, the author of a work is considered to be the first owner of the copyright over that work. This general rule is subject to certain exceptions which are provided in Section 17(a)-(e): Exception 1: (Section 17(a)) a. In case of literary, dramatic or artistic work; b. Made in the course of his employment ; c. Under a proprietor of a Newspaper, magazine or similar periodical. d. Under a contract of service or apprenticeship; and e. The copyright relates to the publication/republication of the work in the newspaper, magazine or periodical. In this case, the said proprietor shall be the first owner of the copyright over the work, unless there is a contract to the contrary. Exception 2: (Section 17(b)) a. Subject to Exception 1; b. In case of a photograph, painting, portrait, engraving or cinematograph film. c. Made for valuable consideration ; d. At the instance of any person; In this case, the person at whose instance the work was done will be the first owner of the copyright, unless there is a contract to the contrary. If the work falls within both Exception 1 and Exception 2, then Exception 1 applies. Exception 3: (Section 17(c)) a. If the first two exceptions do not apply; b. Work is made in the author s course of employment c. Under a contract of service or apprenticeship In this case, the employer at whose instance the work was done will be the first owner of the copyright, unless there is a contract to the contrary. Exception 4: (Section 17(cc)) a. Public address/speech; b. If made on behalf of other person
4 In this case, the other person on whose behalf the speech was made is the first owner of the copyright, irrespective of whether such other person was employed by anyone else. Exception 5: (Section 17(d)) In case of government work, unless there is a contract to the contrary, the government shall be the first owner of the copyright. Government work is defined to mean a work made or published by or under the direction or control of the Government or any department of the government, any legislature of India, or any court, tribunal or other judicial authority in India. Exception 6: (Section 17(dd)) In case of a work made, or first published by or under the direction or control of any pubic undertaking, unless there is a contract to the contrary, the public undertaking shall be the first owner of the copyright. A pubic undertaking is defined to mean an undertaking owned or controlled by Government, a government company under Section 617 of the Companies Act, or a body corporate established by or under any Central, Provincial or State Act. Exception 7: (Section 17(e) r/w Section 41) In case of a work covered by Section 41 (a work made or first published by or under the direction or control of any international organizations, as published in the Official Gazette by the Central Government), the said international organization shall be the first owner. As seen above, whereas exceptions 1-3 are general ones and exception 4 is for public speech/address, exceptions 5-7 are specific exceptions associated with government or international organization work. In both exceptions 1 and 3, the phrases contract of service and course of employment are crucial and are highly fact-specific. The phrase contract of service refers to an employer-employee type relationship as opposed to a contract for service or an independent contractor relationship. Courts consider various factors to determine this, including, the nature of the remuneration, the control exercised by the employer etc. To determine whether the work is within the employee s course of employment, one looks at factors such as where the work was created, whether the work created was part of the tasks entrusted to the employee, whether employer s resources were used to create the work etc.
