How this draft is structured

A general affidavit has three parts: an identification of the deponent (name, parentage, age, address), numbered paragraphs stating the facts the deponent swears to, and a verification clause confirming the contents are true to the deponent's knowledge. This generator arranges your inputs into that standard structure so you can review, adapt and print it on the appropriate stamp paper for your state before signing before a notary or oath commissioner.

  • Each line you enter under facts becomes a separately numbered paragraph.
  • The verification clause follows the common "verified at ... on ... that the contents are true and correct" wording used across Indian courts.
  • Stamp paper value, notarisation and any forum-specific format (e.g. court affidavits under the CPC/CrPC) still need to be checked locally.

Sources & legal basis

  • Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 — Order XIX (affidavits).
  • Indian Evidence Act, 1872 and Indian Penal Code / Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita provisions on false affidavits/perjury.
  • The Notaries Act, 1952 and state stamp duty schedules for affidavit stamp paper.

Formats and stamp-paper requirements vary by state and by the forum the affidavit is filed before. Confirm the exact requirement with your advocate or the relevant registry before use.

Frequently asked questions

Treat it as a starting draft. Review the wording with an advocate, adjust it to your specific forum's requirements, and print it on the correct value of stamp paper for your state before signing before a notary or oath commissioner.

Most affidavits used before courts and authorities in India need to be sworn before a notary, oath commissioner or executive magistrate. Requirements vary by state and by the forum the affidavit is submitted to.

A false affidavit can attract criminal liability for perjury under the Indian Penal Code / Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, in addition to being disregarded or challenged in the proceeding it was filed for.

This produces a general-purpose affidavit format. Court affidavits filed under Order XIX of the Code of Civil Procedure or under specific rules may require additional recitals — check the applicable rules or ask your advocate before filing.
