This query is : Resolved
dear Sirs,
I have a doubt . It is regarding registration of a document. Although, the registration Act mainly deals with the registration of documents connected with the transfer of immovable proprties, I have read that a document of any type can be reistered under this Act.The main reason for this is that , as per sec 18(f), " all other documents " can be registered !
And, as such, an agreement to marry can be registered ! I have also read that even a "FILM SCRIPT " can also be registered under this provision !
1. Can any body explain whether a registered " FILM SCRIPT " will have the same validity of a "FILM SCRIPT" having copy right ?
2. If so, how to prepare a document, seeking registration of a "FILM SCRIPT", as there will be only one party .( general guidlines is enough .)
thanking you sirs,

1. copy right is different, registering the document is different. But, you can claim copy right, if it is your own baby.
2. Prepare a document that it is your own film script. show the film script as supplement to the that main document.
3. then register the document. Check with the SRO of your area on the registration fees.
4. take the help of an advocate for drafting.

The Registration Act deals with registration of agreement,be it compulsorily or optional,and an agreement presupposes existence of at least two parties.
Then your very thinking of registering a "FILM SCRIPT", under registration Act is devoid of merit.You do it any way it can never serve your intent as the soluton is the COPY RIGHT ACT.
