High Courts of India

Data as on 01.11.2026. Source: LawInC analysis of Department of Justice data.

Each High Court page lists the judges sitting at that court, in sitting-court seniority, and — what the public monthly lists do not put on one page — the judges of that Parent High Court who are serving elsewhere as Chief Justice or as a puisne judge, and those now in the Supreme Court. Each court page shows sitting judges with All India Seniority and Permanent High Court Seniority (PHC-S). Historical and permanent rolls are kept in the LawInC archive, not on these public pages.
