DPIIT Committee Prepares Copyrightability Working Paper
7.0
India's DPIIT committee, formed April 28, 2025, is expected to release its second working paper on the copyrightability and authorship of AI-generated content in about two months. Its December 8 first paper proposed a mandatory blanket licence for training data with a statutory remuneration right for copyright holders, and the committee is now seeking stakeholder feedback ahead of further recommendations.
