Here’s another classic that comes wrapped in both ambition and confusion 😅:
👉 “Sir, I have a million-dollar startup idea. Can I copyright it?”
Short answer: Nope. 🙅♂️
Your idea, no matter how brilliant, cannot be protected by copyright. Under the Indian Copyright Act, 1957, only the expression of an idea is protected — like a logo, website content, app design, pitch deck, code, video, or blog.
But the core concept of “Uber for Dosas” or “Tinder for Tutors”? That’s just an idea, and sadly, ideas are not copyrighted. 😬💡
🔥 How Can You Actually Protect Your Startup?
✅ Trademark your brand name or logo.
✅ Patent your innovative process or product (if eligible).
✅ Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) with co-founders, developers, and freelancers.
✅ Keep detailed records, timestamps, and emails – it helps during disputes.
📌 Top Legal Tools to Guard Your Dream:
-
Trademark Registration
-
NDA Drafting
