Explanatory note

This Order revokes and replaces with certain modifications the Reciprocal Enforcement of Judgments (India) Order, 1953. The modifications are for the purpose of adding the Supreme Court of India to the list of courts contained in the Order of 1953 and revising the list of territories in India to which the Foreign Judgments (Reciprocal Enforcement) Act, 1933, Part I, extends.

The revocation is not to affect judgments given before the commencement of this Order by Courts which were Superior Courts under the Order of 1953.
