How limitation periods work in India

The Limitation Act, 1963 prescribes the time within which a suit, appeal or application must be filed. Missing this period can bar a claim entirely, subject to exceptions like condonation of delay under Section 5.

This calculator shows the base limitation period only — factors such as exclusion of time, disability, acknowledgment, or the time taken to obtain a certified copy of a judgment are not automatically applied. Always verify against the current Act and consult a lawyer before relying on any deadline shown here.
