A.Indian Copyright Act 1957 under section 51 protects the infringement of the expression of photographers. Any violation or infringement of the rights of the author is copyright infringement. Also, Indian Courts have held that the publication of a photograph without the permission of the author/owner from another published material is an infringement of the photograph. However when the same photograph is used by another person without any intention of obtaining illegal profits then it won’t amount to infringement. Also if the photograph is used for legislative, or academic purpose then it won’t amount to copyright infringement of fair use and are the permissible use of photographs without the prior consent of the photographer.
