Warrant for levy of fine issued by a Court in any territory to which this Sanhita does not extend.
What this section does
Where a Criminal Court in a territory to which the BNSS does not extend sentences an offender to pay a fine and issues a warrant to a Collector in BNSS territory to realise it as arrears of land revenue, that warrant is deemed to be a warrant issued under section 461(1)(b) of the BNSS. The execution provisions of section 461(3) — including the bar on arrest or detention — apply to such a warrant accordingly.

Why this matters
BNSS Section 463 forms part of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita which replaced the Code of Criminal Procedure 1973 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.
