    I'm not sure whether you can get a patent for your software. As far as I know, Patents are offered on the ideas ( #-Link-Snipped-# may know more about this ) but you can definitely get a copyright for your software program or application. Go through the FAQ on this on Government's Official site: #-Link-Snipped-#

    How the copyright for software is given?
    Suppose, I have created an application using Microsoft's .NET, will my app be eligible for copyright?👎 or I need to use open-source language for my app development??😕
