Appellate and writ proceedings

Supreme Court, High Court & NCLAT Appeals

Practice information on appellate and writ proceedings before the Supreme Court of India, High Courts and NCLAT, including limitation, record preparation, interim relief and statutory remedies.

Choose the correct appellate route

The nature of the impugned order, statutory appeal provisions, alternative remedies, limitation and the precise relief required should be identified before drafting.

Record-first preparation

Appellate work depends heavily on the record below. Relevant pleadings, documents, orders, hearing history and procedural events should be assembled chronologically.

Information for preliminary review

Organise the proposed client and opposing parties, the current forum and stage, relevant notice or order dates and any known upcoming date. Provide only a short, non-confidential summary at enquiry stage.

Any consultation, drafting, opinion or representation requires conflict review, express acceptance and separately agreed scope and professional terms. An enquiry does not protect a deadline.
