Licences required
PPL has two separate licences. A Background Music licence covers ambient daily play at a venue. An Event Music licence covers a specific occasion (party, sangeet, conference, club night). A background licence does not cover events at the same venue. If you're playing this at a specific event, you need the Event Music Licence. Read the breakdown →
Performer rights: A portion of every PPL or Novex licence fee is distributed to ISAMRA for the singers and musicians on the recording. You don't pay ISAMRA separately. Read how →
PPL licensing authority challenged — SC case pending
Delhi High Court Division Bench (Apr 2025) ruled PPL cannot issue licenses as it is not a registered copyright society, directing it to join RMPL. PPL appealed to the Supreme Court. The SC stayed the Delhi HC direction in Apr 2025 — PPL is currently operating normally pending final SC hearing. This affects all 450+ PPL member labels. Check this page for updates.

Using this at a wedding? IPRS is not required for wedding ceremonies under Section 52(1)(za) of the Copyright Act, 1957. PPL still applies — and the dispute above still stands.
