The neutral citation number of the High Court of Delhi shall consist of the three components “Year/DHC/Auto Generated Number,” according to a circular issued by the Registrar (IT) of the High Court on October 15.
“A unique neutral citation number for every judgment uploaded on the official website of this Court will be auto-generated w.e.f. 17.10.2022 and will be auto-generated w.e.f. 17.10.2022 and will be available at the top of each page of the judgment,” the circular states.
Additionally, it has been reported that a new search field has been included under the “Judgments – PDF Judgment” link to make it easier to find relevant judgments by their neutral citation number in addition to other important words.
“It is hereby informed to all concerned that the High Court of Delhi is going to introduce neutral citation system with effect from 17.10.2022 for all its judgments uploaded on the official website of this Court www.delhihighcourt.nic.in,” the circular reads.
