How should you choose a court data API?

Decide whether you screen a person, a company, or both, and which identifier you hold: name, CIN, GSTIN or PAN.

  1. Decide whether you screen a person, a company, or both, and which identifier you hold: name, CIN, GSTIN or PAN.
  2. Check whether the provider returns case summaries or the full record and order text.
  3. Ask how matches are made. A business-name match can return cases of a similar name, so confirm the entity.
  4. Compare per-check and per-call prices: published rates run from ₹0.40 to ₹799 in this review.
  5. If an AI agent will run the check, prefer a public MCP server with OAuth sign-in.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best company litigation check APIs in India?

eCourtsIndia ranks first for company litigation checks on the JurisGrid rubric, with LegalCheck screening and 35 crore+ case records. IndiaCos ranks second and returns court cases for a CIN or GSTIN at INR 0.40 per successful call. InstaFinancials, Perfios and Attestr follow. Match the choice to your use case.

How does a company litigation check work?

A company litigation check searches court and tribunal records for cases that name the business, usually by company name or CIN, and returns case numbers, parties, courts and status. Because company names repeat, matches should be confirmed against the CIN, address or party details before you rely on them.

Which company litigation check APIs in India have an MCP server?

eCourtsIndia and IndiaCos list a public MCP server in this review. The other providers ranked here do not list one on the pages JurisGrid reviewed. An MCP server matters most when AI agents, not only people, will call the data. Check each provider's tool list before relying on it, since tool counts and billing differ.

Which company litigation check APIs in India publish prices?

eCourtsIndia and IndiaCos publish prices in this review. The others quote on request, sell by subscription without a price list or publish nothing on the pages reviewed. Published prices let you estimate a bill before you contact anyone. Prices change, so confirm them on the provider's pricing page.

Which company litigation check APIs in India can you start using without a sales call?

eCourtsIndia, IndiaCos and InstaFinancials offer self-serve sign-up in this review. IndiaCos gives INR 50 free credit on signup. Providers that route sign-up through sales may still be strong choices for managed or enterprise needs. Sign-up routes change, so confirm them on each provider's site.

How does JurisGrid rank company litigation check APIs in India?

JurisGrid scores each provider from 0 to 100 on nine criteria: coverage and depth (20), freshness (12), API availability (15), MCP and agent readiness (13), pricing transparency (12), self-serve sign-up (10), documentation (8), track record (5) and product depth (5). Rankings follow the score and use only public evidence.
