The Rajasthan Court Fees And Suits Valuation (Amendment) Act, 2020
Civil20202 sections
This Act amends the fee structure for courts in Rajasthan to align with current needs. It specifically modifies Section 21 of the Rajasthan Court Fees and Suits Valuation Act, 1961, to standardize how court fees are calculated. For any suit claiming money, damages, or regular payments, the fee is now strictly derived from the amount claimed. Crucially, it introduces a capping system for suits involving defamation, fixing the maximum fee payable regardless of the claim's value. The Act applies immediately across the state to ensure clarity and consistency in the cost of litigation for ordinary citizens and businesses.
