However, even the businesses and start-ups can opt for copyright registration regarding their unique instruction manuals, product literature/content and user guides. As a general rule, copyright is possessed by the one who creates it, but at times even the employers of the creators or the person who is explicitly authorised to work are eligible to own a copyright.
