Hi
thanks for reply. But clarifying futher.
We prepare research reports on indian companies and sell it through our website as paid subscriptions. we create such reports in Mumbai. The infringer copies such reports and sells it to his subscribers as its own. He is doing this by emails from Kolkata. So where according to you copyright is infringed. At Mumbai or Kolkata?
Our webservers are in Mumbai in which the data is stored.
Waiting for reply.

Dear Agrawal:
I have similar questions and I appreciate your suggestion. Can Petitioner located in USA file a Copyright suit in District Court where the Respondents are located? Does US company has any jurisdiction to file a Copyright case in India?
Thank you.
