Choose eCourtsIndia if
you want an AI agent or internal tool to run checks through a public MCP server with OAuth sign-in
you want LegalCheck, a litigation background check on a person or company across courts and tribunals, with most reports ready in 1 to 3 minutes, at ₹99 on pay as you go or ₹33 with an active subscription
you want to see prices and start with ₹200 free credit and no card, and be charged only when a new job is accepted, with terminal failures refunded
you want electoral roll search by name, relative name, EPIC, age, gender and location, or a lookup by EPIC number, through the same API
you want the underlying case record, order text and hearing history from the same API as the check
