This Act amends the Court Fees Act, 1870 to update the fee structures for courts in Jharkhand. It replaces the old schedules with new ones that define how much money must be paid to file lawsuits or petitions based on the value of the dispute or the type of application. Specifically, it introduces advalorem fees calculated as a percentage of the claim amount and sets fixed fees for various administrative and judicial applications. The law applies to the entire state and takes effect from the date it is officially published in the state gazette.
