Four ways to search on the eCourts portal.
The eCourts portal at ecourts.gov.in covers district courts and high courts across India. Here is how each search method works and when to use it.
By CNR number
The CNR (Case Number Record) is the most direct way to pull case status. It is a 16-digit code printed on your eCourts filing receipt. Format: two-letter state code, four-letter court code, six-digit case number, four-digit year. A CNR uniquely identifies one case across the entire eCourts system, so the lookup is instant.
Tip: Example: DLST010012342023 for a Delhi district court case.
By case number
If you don't have the CNR, you can search by case type and number at a specific court. For district courts, choose the state, district, and court complex first. For high courts, select the court directly. Case type abbreviations differ by court: W.P.(C) for writ petitions (civil) at Delhi HC, Crl.A. for criminal appeals, CS for original civil suits.
Tip: Case type, case number, and year must all match exactly.
By advocate name
The advocate search tab on ecourts.gov.in lists all cases where a given advocate is enrolled as petitioner's counsel or respondent's counsel. You enter the advocate's name, select the court, and the system returns all pending and disposed matters. This is how many advocates check their full pending list, though it can be slow for advocates with large rosters.
Tip: Bar registration number gives a faster, more accurate result than a name search.
By party name
Party name search is a broader query. It searches across case titles for a given party string. Results can include multiple cases with similar party names. Most useful when you know a client's name but don't have the case number. Combining it with a year filter reduces the noise.
Tip: Party name searches can time out on busy servers. CNR is more reliable.
Where eCourts has gaps
The eCourts system is comprehensive but not complete. Several specialised courts, including NCLT, consumer forums, and DRTs, have their own separate portals and are not on ecourts.gov.in. Some smaller district courts in states outside Delhi also have uneven coverage. NyayX handles cases from courts not on eCourts with manual entry: you set the hearing date yourself and NyayX handles the reminders and diary.
Add a case once. Never look it up again.
For advocates with 30 or 100 pending matters, the daily eCourts check is a real time cost. NyayX runs it in the background and sends you only what changed.
Automatic NDOH sync
NyayX fetches the next date of hearing from eCourts after each cause list update. You don't need to open the portal after every hearing.
Add by CNR or case number
Paste the CNR or case number when adding a case to NyayX. The app pulls the case title, parties, and first known hearing date from eCourts automatically.
WhatsApp hearing reminders
NyayX sends a WhatsApp message the evening before and the morning of each hearing. It includes your item number if your case is on the cause list for that day.
Full case diary per matter
Attach briefs, orders, and correspondence to each case. Every hearing gets its own notes and task items. All linked to the eCourts data for that case.
