Pecuniary/Monetary
Pecuniary jurisdiction of the court divides the court on a vertical basis.
At present the pecuniary jurisdiction of the Delhi courts is as follows:
  1. Suits amounting to Rs.1 - Rs.20, 00,000 lie before district courts.
  2. Suits over and above Rs. 20,00,000/- lie before High Courts.
    1. It is very important to note that the amount of pecuniary jurisdiction is different for all High Courts. This limit is decided by respective High Court Rules.
    2. In many states High court has no pecuniary jurisdiction. All civil suits go before District Courts, and only appeal lies before High Court.
