SCI integration

For cases filed in the Supreme Court of India, NyayX connects directly to the SCI portal and mirrors the case record into your workspace. You don’t have to re-type party names, upload every order, or track the daily cause-list yourself.

One-time fetch during case creation

When you select Supreme Court of India as the court in the New Case form and fill in case type (or “Diary”), serial, and year, a 🔍 Fetch from Supreme Court button appears. Clicking it looks up the record in the background and pre-fills the form once found, which usually takes a few seconds. There’s nothing for you to solve here; where SCI’s own portal needs a captcha, NyayX’s lookup service handles it automatically (diary-number lookups skip that step entirely).

What gets populated:

  • Identifiers: CNR, diary number, diary year, registration date, neutral citation, additional case numbers
  • Parties: petitioners, respondents, and the advocates on record for each side
  • Status: disposal date and disposal type (if disposed), last-listed date, current stage
  • Schedule: tentative next-listing date and any note published with it
  • Attached proceedings: IAs, hearings, orders, earlier-court history, office reports, notices, court fees, caveats, and cases SCI itself flags as similar

You can edit any pre-filled field before saving. If SCI shows the case as disposed, the new case is saved with status Closed; otherwise Filed.

Daily auto-sync

Once a Supreme Court case exists in your workspace, NyayX keeps it in sync automatically, 3 times a day at 7:00 AM, 9:00 PM, and 10:30 PM IST. You’ll see this line at the bottom of the Case Records card on the Overview tab:

Auto-syncs 3× daily (7 AM, 9 PM, 10:30 PM IST) · last updated …

New hearings, orders, notices, and status changes appear in the respective tabs without any manual refresh. There is no manual “refresh now” button for an already-linked SCI case, since the schedule is reliable enough that you don’t need one. (If you’re converting an existing manual case to a live SCI-linked one, that’s a separate one-time Sync to court action from the case header, not a refresh of an existing sync.)

Once a case is disposed, NyayX keeps re-checking it for about a week, to catch the final order as it’s uploaded, before syncing stops for good. The footer then reads:

Final data · synced …

What you see on the case detail

Several SCI-driven UI elements show up on Supreme Court cases:

  • Tentative next-listing banner: inside the Case Details card, “Tentative next listing: date”, with a Tentative chip. Hidden on disposed cases.
  • Counsel card (Overview): petitioner’s and respondent’s advocates, read-only.
  • SCI Orders & Judgements card (Overview): each order/judgement with a type badge and date, plus a View link.
  • Court Notices card (Overview): SCI-issued notices with their returnable dates, shown directly on Overview as well as in the Notices tab.
  • Counsel (from SCI): read-only block at the bottom of the Parties tab.
  • Lower Courts tab: earlier-court entries pulled from SCI sit alongside any you add manually, marked with an “Auto-sync” pill.
  • Notices tab: SCI-issued notices grouped by issue date, with a colour-coded returnable-date chip (past / due soon / future).
  • Caveats tab: a read-only “Court-Scraped Caveats” section for any caveats SCI has on record, alongside caveats you track yourself.
  • Similar Cases tab: a read-only list of cases SCI’s own registry has flagged as related.

The disposed banner itself isn’t Supreme Court specific; it appears on any case, from any court, once it’s marked Closed or has a disposal date.

See Case detail tabs for the full tab-by-tab breakdown.

Imported documents

Orders and judgements attached to the SCI record are downloaded into the case Documents tab, tagged as Order-type documents (judgements and plain orders aren’t split into separate document types, only distinguished by their description). Office reports come in tagged as Other. Notices are not imported as documents; they stay as case data surfaced on the Overview and Notices tabs instead. In the workspace-wide Document Vault, these files carry the SCI source tag.

Cause-list matching

Every time SCI publishes a daily cause-list, NyayX checks whether any of your Supreme Court cases appear, matched primarily by diary number and falling back to case type, serial range, and year, then surfaces the matches on the Cause Lists dashboard. See Cause lists.
