Chennai — Daily Causelist on WhatsApp
Chennai's district courts hide in plain sight: the City Civil and Sessions Courts sit inside the Madras High Court campus itself, in the Main and Annexe blocks, while Park Town, George Town and Egmore run their own boards. eCourtsPulse delivers every causelist and every case update to one WhatsApp chat, plus push alerts for order PDFs — so the day starts with a plan, not a queue at the notice board.
Chennai is one of 700+ district courts covered across India. If your court is on eCourts, eCourtsPulse works for you too.
Courts covered in Chennai
-
City Civil and Sessions Courts, Chennai
The principal civil and sessions establishment for the city, sitting in the Main and Annexe blocks inside the Madras High Court campus. It runs deep — a Principal Judge, 28 Additional and Special District Judges, and 29 Civil Judges (Senior Division). official website ↗
-
Additional City Civil Court, Allikulam
At the Allikulam Commercial Complex in Park Town — additional courtrooms of the same City Civil establishment, covered under the same subscription. Causelists from these courtrooms arrive in the same WhatsApp chat as the main-campus matters, with push alerts for order PDFs.
-
Magistrate courts, George Town and Egmore
The criminal side of the Chennai board sits with the magistrate courts at George Town and Egmore. On eCourts, and covered — criminal-side updates land in the same 6:30 pm digest as everything else.
Main block se Egmore tak — ek hi chat
A civil matter in the Annexe block at 11, an Allikulam listing to confirm before lunch, and a magistrate's date at Egmore tomorrow — a perfectly ordinary Chennai week, spread across a High Court campus and half of Park Town and George Town. It used to mean separate lookups, or a clerk making the rounds. With every bench in one WhatsApp thread, you know tonight which courtrooms need you tomorrow — court hall, serial number, parties — before you decide where the morning starts. Order copy chahiye? It is already in the chat, the day it was uploaded. The diary stays in your pocket, and the evening "naalaikku board la irukka?" call to the clerk becomes a scroll.
How it works
Tomorrow's causelist, by 3 pm — whether the matter sits in the Main block or at Allikulam, one PDF. Court room, serial number, parties — everything you need to plan the next day.
Case updates, by 6:30 pm — What moved today: adjourned, order passed, or disposed — with next hearing dates. One end-of-day digest on WhatsApp.
Order PDFs, pushed to your phone — New order on eCourts? Your phone buzzes with a push alert — tap to open the PDF. Order PDFs and next-date changes arrive as app push notifications, separate from your WhatsApp causelist.

Checking the Chennai causelist the manual way
The official route is the district court's own website — chennai.dcourts.gov.in — which publishes causelists for the City Civil courts and the magistrate benches, or the eCourts services portal, one case number at a time. Either way it is a daily ritual: open the site, pick the court, hunt for your serial — and miss an evening, and the next morning starts blind at the notice board. eCourtsPulse reads the same official data and simply brings it to your WhatsApp every day, for every case you track, without the daily lookup.
FAQ — Chennai advocates
Which Chennai courts does eCourtsPulse cover?
The full City Civil and Sessions establishment — the Main and Annexe blocks on the Madras High Court campus and the Additional City Civil Court at the Allikulam Commercial Complex, Park Town — plus the magistrate courts at George Town and Egmore. That is a Principal Judge, 28 Additional and Special District Judges, and 29 Civil Judges (Senior Division), all in one WhatsApp chat.
My matter is before the Madras High Court itself — is that included?
No — eCourtsPulse covers district courts only. The Madras High Court publishes its own causelist on its official website. The Chennai twist: a case can be heard inside the High Court campus and still be a district matter — those City Civil listings we deliver every day.
What are the steps to start receiving the Chennai causelist?
Create an account at eCourtsPulse and add each Chennai case by its CNR or case number. From then on, tomorrow's causelist lands on your WhatsApp by 3 pm today, the end-of-day digest by 6:30 pm, plus a push alert the moment an order PDF appears on eCourts.
