The data behind Nirnaya GPT

Every finding this app produces is matched against a curated dataset of statute sections, not generated freely — here's exactly what that dataset contains right now, and how complete it is. This page reflects the live database, not a snapshot.

Statute sections

74,349 provisions (sections, sub-sections and clauses), of which 19,302 are whole sections, across 782 Acts, Rules and notifications, drawn from official Government of India text published on indiacode.nic.in.

69,652 in force, 4,697 repealed. We keep repealed law, with dates, so we can match the law to the date of your issue.

This table lists Acts by name. The 782 figure counts every Act, Rule and notification.

Two fields matter most for understanding your actual legal risk, and they're tracked separately because a section can have one without the other: bailable — whether you can get bail as of right, or it's left to a court's discretion — and cognizable — whether police can arrest and start investigating on their own, or need a magistrate's order first. Neither is ever guessed: this app only states a section's status when it's grounded in the official CrPC/BNSS First Schedule (for IPC/BNS) or the Act's own text, and leaves it blank rather than assume.

“Bail/cognizable metadata” means whether a section is flagged bailable/non-bailable and cognizable/non-cognizable in plain language for the user — sourced from the official CrPC/BNSS First Schedule for IPC and BNS, and researched per-Act for the others. Left blank rather than guessed wherever the classification genuinely depends on facts (e.g. drug quantity under the NDPS Act) that can't be determined from the section number alone. 1,264 of 3,454 sections have it so far — this is actively being expanded.

Essential ingredients

Findings also show, per section, the specific legal elements (“essential ingredients”) that need to be established for an offence to apply — checked against your case's facts to flag which are confirmed and which are still unclear, so you can see where a case is strong or weak before a lawyer even looks at it. Ingredients only apply to sections that actually define a punishable offence — the rest (definitions, court procedure, rule-making powers) correctly have none to list. Of 1,727 sections that define an offence, 1,062 have this worked out so far.

Documents this app can draft

60 distinct document types — legal notices, complaints, applications, deeds, and petitions — each with its own drafting rules grounded in the relevant Act, never a generic template. 31 have actually been generated for real cases so far.

Case facts we can capture

300 distinct case facts across every case type — 5 tracked on every case regardless of type, plus a further set specific to each of the 60 document types this app can draft, depending on which apply to a given case.

Legal aid directory

29 resources — NALSA, State/District Legal Services Authorities, women's helplines, and other free-legal-aid contacts, surfaced alongside your findings based on your state and case type.

Case law

Two layers here. Findings automatically cite from a curated set of 88 precedents so far — real excerpts, grounded in the actual judgment text, never invented from the model's own memory — cited only when genuinely relevant to your specific facts. Separately, you can search live against Indian Kanoon's full database — judgments from the Supreme Court, 24 High Courts, and 17 tribunals — from your dashboard or over WhatsApp, for a specific citation or case status. Neither is ever asserted as binding precedent, just as a real example a lawyer can independently verify.

What this is not

This dataset has not been exhaustively reviewed section-by-section by a licensed advocate. Section numbers, punishment figures, and procedural metadata may contain errors — use findings as a starting point, not a final answer. See our About page for how the reasoning itself works.
