Digest Of Supreme Court On Indian Evidence Act , 1872

Digest of Supreme Court on Indian Evidence Act, 1872 is a practicable, section-wise compilation of Supreme Court jurisprudence interpreting the Evidence Act. Each chapter focuses on a key provision (e.g., relevance, admissions, confessions, dying declarations, documentary and electronic evidence, expert testimony, hearsay exceptions, burden and presumptions) and presents succinct headnotes, case summaries and the doctrinal principle distilled from the decisions. Special emphasis is given to contemporary and frequently litigated questions—admissibility and authenticity of electronic records, Section 65B compliance, chain-of-custody for forensic exhibits, standards for expert opinion, and reliability tests for testimony. Practitioner notes after each digest point out tactical implications (how courts applied the rule, typical proof gaps, drafting tips for evidence preservation, and suggested objections). The book includes thematic indices (by issue and by provision), a timeline of leading cases, and quick-reference flowcharts for evidence preservation and admissibility assessment. Whether preparing for hearing, drafting a brief or researching precedent, readers get immediate access to distilled Supreme Court authority and bench-side guidance to apply evidence law effectively in criminal and civil proceedings.
