Let's say, John is a professional photographer based in Mumbai, who discovers that his copyrighted photograph has been used without his permission by a magazine published in Delhi. According to Section 62 of The Copyright Act, 1957, John has the right to file a suit in the district court of Mumbai, where he resides and works, even though the infringement occurred in Delhi.
