The <strong>Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (BNS)<\/strong> replaced the Indian Penal Code, 1860; the <strong>Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (BNSS)<\/strong> replaced the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973; and the <strong>Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 (BSA)<\/strong> replaced the Indian Evidence Act, 1872. All three received the President&#8217;s assent on 25 December 2023 and were brought into force by notifications issued in February 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most provisions were carried forward with new section numbers \u2013 the BNS has 358 sections against the IPC&#8217;s 511, the BNSS 531 against the CrPC&#8217;s 484, and the BSA 170 against the Evidence Act&#8217;s 167 \u2013 so the day-to-day problem for litigants, police officers, students and lawyers is simply finding the new number. That is what this tool does: pick the old or the new Act, type a section, and it shows the matching provision, its subject and a short note on what, if anything, changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which law applies to my case?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Offence committed before 1 July 2024:<\/strong> the IPC continues to apply to the offence and the punishment, because Article 20(1) of the Constitution forbids punishing anyone under a law that was not in force when the act was done. The FIR, charge-sheet and judgment will cite IPC sections even if they are filed later.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Offence committed on or after 1 July 2024:<\/strong> the BNS applies, and the BNSS governs the investigation and trial.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Investigation, trial or appeal already pending on 1 July 2024:<\/strong> Section 531 of the BNSS saves them \u2013 they continue under the CrPC as if the new code had not been passed. New proceedings started after that date, even for an old offence, follow the BNSS.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Evidence:<\/strong> Section 170 of the BSA likewise keeps the Evidence Act alive for trials and inquiries that were pending on 1 July 2024; later proceedings follow the BSA.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Most-searched IPC sections and their BNS

service<\/strong> is a punishment for the first time (Section 4(f) BNS), available for petty offences such as public drunkenness, defamation and small thefts.<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>New offences:<\/strong> organised crime (Section 111), petty organised crime (112), terrorism (113), murder by a group on grounds of race, caste, community or similar \u2013 mob lynching (103(2)), snatching (304) and sexual intercourse on a false promise of marriage (69).<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>Sedition<\/strong> (124A IPC) has gone; Section 152 BNS punishes acts endangering the sovereignty, unity and integrity of India.<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>Hit-and-run:<\/strong> Section 106(2) BNS (up to ten years for fleeing after causing death by rash driving) was enacted but its commencement was deferred after protests by transporters; check its status before relying on it.<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>FIR and investigation:<\/strong> an FIR can be lodged electronically and at any police station (zero FIR), to be signed within three days (Section 173 BNSS); forensic examination is mandatory for offences punishable with seven years or more (176(3)); the accused must be told of the progress of the investigation within 90 days (193(3)).<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>Timelines:<\/strong> charges to be framed within 60 days of the first hearing (251 BNSS), judgment within 30 days of the close of arguments, extendable to 45 for reasons recorded (258), and mercy petitions within fixed periods (472).<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>Trial in absentia<\/strong> of proclaimed offenders is now possible (Section 356 BNSS), and handcuffing is expressly regulated (43(3)).<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>Undertrials:<\/strong> a first-time offender who has spent one-third of the maximum sentence in custody must be released on bond (Section 479 BNSS), against one-half under the old Section 436A.<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>Electronic evidence<\/strong> is treated as a document and as primary evidence where it is stored in multiple files or storage spaces (Sections 2(1)(d) and 57 BSA); the Section 65B certificate survives as Section 63(4) with a prescribed form.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Is the IPC still in force?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The Indian Penal Code was repealed by Section 358 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita with effect from 1 July 2024, but it continues to govern offences committed before that date. Cases about earlier incidents will still be registered, tried and decided under IPC sections.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-2\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What is Section 302 IPC called now?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Punishment for murder is Section 103(1) of the BNS. The definition of murder, formerly Section 300 IPC, is Section 101 BNS, and culpable homicide (Section 299) is Section 100.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-3\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What is Section 420 IPC in BNS?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Cheating and dishonestly inducing delivery of property is Section 318(4) of the BNS. Section 318(1) defines cheating (old Section 415) and Section 318(2) carries the general punishment (old Section 417).<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-4\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What is Section 498A IPC in the new law?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Cruelty by a husband or his relatives is Section 85 of the BNS, with the definition of cruelty in Section 86. The ingredients and the punishment (up to three years and fine) are unchanged.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-5\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Which section replaces Section 482 CrPC and Section 438 CrPC?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The inherent powers of the High Court (quashing of FIRs and proceedings) are now in Section 528 of the BNSS. Anticipatory bail (old Section 438) is Section 482 BNSS, regular bail in non-bailable offences (437) is Section 480, and the special powers of the High Court and Court of Session (439) are in Section 483.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-6\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Does my pending case switch to the new codes?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">No. Under Section 531 BNSS, an investigation, trial, appeal or application that was pending on 1 July 2024 continues under the CrPC, and under Section 170 BSA the Evidence Act keeps applying to pending trials. Only proceedings started after that date follow the new codes, and the substantive offence is always judged by the law in force when it was committed.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-7\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Is IPC section 377 in the BNS?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">No. The BNS has no provision corresponding to section 377 of the IPC. Section 497 (adultery) and section 309 (attempt to commit suicide) are also omitted; sedition under section 124A is replaced by section 152 (acts endangering the sovereignty, unity and integrity of India), which is worded differently.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-8\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">When did the BNS, BNSS and BSA come into force?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">On 1 July 2024, under notifications dated 23 February 2024. All three Acts received the assent of the President on 25 December 2023. Sub-section (2) of section 106 of the BNS has not been brought into force.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-9\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What is section 65B of the Evidence Act in the BSA?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Section 65B (admissibility of electronic records) is section 63 of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023. The certificate is now in the form given in the Schedule to the BSA.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-10\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How many sections do the new laws have?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The BNS has 358 sections in 20 chapters (the IPC had 511), the BNSS has 531 sections in 39 chapters (the CrPC had 484), and the BSA has 170 sections (the Evidence Act had 167).<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-11\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Where does the text in this tool come from?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">From the Acts as published in the Gazette of India on 25 December 2023 (Acts 45, 46 and 47 of 2023), checked against the Ministry of Home Affairs&#8217; corresponding-section tables. The classification of offences (cognizable, bailable, which court) is from the First Schedule to the BNSS. State amendments are not covered. Always confirm against the official text before relying on it.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-12\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Is this tool free?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes.
