CHAPTER II GENERAL EXPLANATIONS
Section 16: Definition of “Government of India”
The Indian Penal Code, 1860 (repealed)
Repealed by the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (45 of 2023) with effect from 1 July 2024.
Not in the BNS
The IPC itself records this repeal (India Code text, shown above). It was no longer in force when the new Sanhita was enacted, so no correspondence table lists it.
| IPC 16 | Repealed before 2023, by the Government of India (Adaptation of Indian Laws) Order, 1937 ("A. O. 1937") |
