Core Purpose

The High Court of Delhi amends the "Delhi High Court (Original Side) Rules, 2018" by substituting Rule 10 of Chapter IV.

Detailed Summary

The High Court of Delhi, exercising powers conferred by Section 129 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, and Section 7 of the Delhi High Court Act, 1966 (Act 26 of 1966), issued Notification No. 79/Rules/DHC on September 27, 2025, to amend the "Delhi High Court (Original Side) Rules, 2018." This amendment substitutes the existing Rule 10 of Chapter IV with new provisions detailing the order for keeping the "Interlocutory applications' file (Part II of the suit record)." The new Rule 10 mandates that the file shall contain an index, all interlocutory applications, their replies, rejoinders, and supporting documents, with Rule 9 applying mutatis mutandis to amended applications, replies, or rejoinders. Documents relied upon for an interlocutory application must be filed with a separate index, to be placed in the interlocutory applications' file, though the Court may direct them to be kept in the documents file or Part III of the suit record. This amendment came into force from its publication date in the Gazette, which was October 6, 2025. The notification was issued by order of the Court, signed by Arun Bhardwaj, Registrar General.
