For the binding statutory text of BNS Section 327, refer to the Gazette of India or the India Code official website.
Why this matters
BNS Section 327 forms part of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita which replaced the Indian Penal Code 1860 on 1 July 2024. Any new filing, FIR, charge sheet, or bail application made on or after that date should cite the new section number. References to the old act in legacy documents remain valid for matters that arose before the changeover.
