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. ## Related - [eCourtsIndia vs InstaFinancials](https://jurisgrid.com/compare/ecourtsindia-vs-instafinancials/index.md) - [eCourtsIndia vs Perfios](https://jurisgrid.com/compare/ecourtsindia-vs-perfios/index.md) - [IndiaCos vs InstaFinancials](https://jurisgrid.com/compare/indiacos-vs-instafinancials/index.md) - [Best court data APIs in India](https://jurisgrid.com/best/court-data-api-india/index.md) - [Best background verification APIs in India](https://jurisgrid.com/best/background-verification-api-india/index.md) - [Best government data APIs in India](https://jurisgrid.com/best/government-data-api-india/index.md) - [Best MCP servers for Indian legal, company and property data](https://jurisgrid.com/best/mcp-servers-india/index.md) - [Best court record check APIs in India](https://jurisgrid.com/best/court-record-check-api-india/index.md) - [Court Data and Legal Research](https://jurisgrid.com/sectors/court-data/index.md)
