Section 143 of CPC : Section 143: Postage.

Explanation using Example

Example 1:

Ravi files a civil suit against his neighbor for encroaching on his property. The court issues a summons to the neighbor to appear in court. According to Section 143 of the Code of Civil Procedure 1908, Ravi is required to pay the postage charges for sending the summons by post. The court informs Ravi that he must pay the postage fee within a specified time before the summons can be sent. If Ravi fails to pay the fee within the given time, the summons will not be forwarded to his neighbor.

Example 2:

Meena is involved in a civil dispute over a contract breach and receives a notice from the court. The notice is sent by registered post, and Meena is required to pay the registration fee. The court sets a deadline for Meena to pay this fee. However, the State Government has issued a notification remitting the postage and registration fees for certain types of civil cases to reduce the financial burden on litigants. As a result, Meena does not have to pay the postage or registration fee for the notice she received.
