A method for manufacturing a disc includes the steps of performing laser exposure of an inorganic resist master on which a photosensitive layer is formed using an inorganic material, which protrudes in an exposed region, and a surface coat layer is formed on the surface of the photosensitive layer in order to control the shape of protrusion, transferring the shape of protrusion formed by the laser exposure on the inorganic resist master to produce a stamper on which a portion corresponding to the shape of protrusion is a depression, forming a resin substrate using the stamper so that a portion corresponding to the shape of protrusion is a protrusion, and forming a predetermined layer structure on the resin substrate to produce an optical disc.
