The Indian Copyright Law of 1957 bans the reproduction of a previously written artistic material or performance rights without prior consent of the owner. The law clearly states that the owner has the sole right on his copyright. The law not only protects works of art from ‘theft’ but also protects dramatic, artistic and musical works along with cinematography films and sound recording.
The use of ‘available material’ without sanction of author for personal profit is illegal and this act breaks the copyright law 1957. There are special copyright attorneys in India that can help you in the case of any possible violation. Violation of copyright law 1957 is an offense and is punished likewise.
