Why it holds up

Answers you can check, not trust.

India produces reported authority at a scale few jurisdictions can match. The Supreme Court of India and the High Courts across the states and union territories hand down judgments continuously, and decades of precedent sit scattered across reporters and databases. Finding the decision that actually settles your point — and reading it in context — can swallow days of research time.

LexChat starts with retrieval over Indian reported cases and legislation, then reasons only over what it actually found. Every proposition in the answer is pinned to a specific decision or provision, so you can open the source, read the holding in context, and confirm it for yourself before it goes anywhere near a filing.

The court system

India's courts, ready to query.

01

Supreme Court of India.

The apex court of the Republic, sitting in New Delhi. Its decisions bind all courts in India, and its constitutional and appellate judgments form the backbone of Indian precedent.

02

High Courts.

The senior courts of the states and union territories, exercising appellate and writ jurisdiction. Their reported judgments bind the courts below them and carry persuasive weight across the country.

03

District and subordinate courts.

The trial courts where most civil and criminal matters begin, operating under the supervision of the High Court of the state or union territory they sit in.

How it works

From question to authority in three steps.

01

Ask in plain language.

Describe the issue the way you would to a colleague — no query syntax, no database codes, no guessing at keywords.

02

Retrieval before reasoning.

LexChat searches Indian sources first, and reasons only over what it actually found.

03

Citations you can open.

Answers arrive pinned to decisions and provisions. Open the source, confirm the holding, and cite it with confidence.
