Bare Act

The Commercial Documents Evidence (Gujarat Extension and Amendment) Act, 1962

This law amends the Commercial Documents Evidence Act of 1939 to extend its application to the Saurashtra region of Gujarat. It repeals an earlier ordinance that had applied the 1939 Act to that area, ensuring that the original federal law now governs the region. The legislation also includes a saving clause, meaning that any legal actions or documents already processed under the repealed ordinance will remain valid as if the new law were in effect. This change clarifies the legal framework for handling commercial documents in the Saurashtra area.
