Abstract

The research paper dwells upon the Concept of originality under copyright law and explains how this concept affects the claims under Copyright law. It discusses in detail about the evolution of concept of originality under Copyright Law in UK and USA through a series of case laws. It also discusses India’s stand in copyright cases. The paper puts a light on inconsistency of Court’s judgment in cases of copyright infringement and the variation in remedies awarded for similar set of cases which acts as a barrier for the authors to rely on court proceedings to enforce their copyright claims as the cost involved in court proceedings is usually very high. The researchers finally provides with an alternative model to provide remedies in cases of copyright infringement which takes into account the originality of the work produced by dividing it into the category of doctrine of inequivalents, added value doctrine and sameness rule thus considering the efforts and labor employed by the authors in creating the work and provide them remedy accordingly
