An uncle of mine is an aspiring author. He has written a book on the history of earth and progress it has made since the mankind evolved. He wants to bring his book in public, but wants to copyright the book first, before handling it to any publisher. Can anyone give me all the information or how-to of copyrighting a book in India.

there's no longer something particular you should do. decrease than the Berne convention, which India is a signatory of and has applied, all creators at once carry copyright on the works they convey.
