A progressive slab system set out in Section 68 of the Muluki Civil Procedure Code 2074. Every claim pays Rs 500 as a floor, then the portion above Rs 25,000 is charged at 5%, 3.5%, 2%, 1.5% and 1% in successive bands. Each rate applies only to the amount inside that band — not the whole claim.
Rs 500. Any claim up to Rs 25,000 attracts that flat amount. Certain matters — divorce, partition without a rights dispute, guardianship and some eviction suits — stay at Rs 500 regardless of the sum involved, under Section 70.
Sections 68 to 70 of the Muluki Civil Procedure Code 2074 (the National Civil Procedure Act 2017). Section 68 defines the slab structure; Section 69 covers when the fee must be paid; Section 70 lists the fixed-fee exceptions.
Rs 19,000 — Rs 500 on the first 25K, Rs 1,250 on the next 25K at 5%, Rs 1,750 on the next 50K at 3.5%, Rs 8,000 on the next 4 lakh at 2% and Rs 7,500 on the next 5 lakh at 1.5%.
No. The tool covers the original civil filing fee under Section 68. Appeals, writs, revisions and special-bench matters follow separate schedules in the relevant court rules — confirm those figures with your advocate.
