As the legal landscape evolves, staying compliant with the latest regulations is paramount for advocates. One significant update is the shift from Section 65B of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872, to Section 63(4)(c) of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023, which is set to be enforced from July 2024. This change underscores the importance of proper documentation for the admissibility of electronic records. Our cutting-edge document automation service is here to assist advocates in navigating these changes effortlessly.
Section 65B of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872:
Previously, to submit electronic records as evidence, a certificate was needed that:
1. Identified the electronic record and described how it was produced.
2. Provided details of any device involved in its production.
3. Addressed conditions related to the record’s creation, signed by a responsible official.
Section 63(4)(c) of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023:
The new regulation enhances these requirements by mandating a certificate to accompany the electronic record every time it is submitted for admission. The certificate must:
1. Identify the electronic record and describe its production process.
2. Include details of any device used in its creation, including computers or communication devices.
3. Address conditions mentioned in sub-section (2) and be signed by the person in charge and an expert.
Previously, an expert certificate was not required for the admissibility of electronic records. However, with the new regulations under Section 63(4)(c) of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023, it has become compulsory.
