Cybercrime is no longer a distant threat - it's a reality. Cyber crimes, ranging from online banking scams and identity theft to hacking, sextortion, and corporate data theft, can wreak havoc on individuals and businesses in a matter of hours.
For a city as technologically advanced as Delhi, the law must keep pace with cyber offences, be tech-savvy and strategically tight.
Our cyber law specialists at Delhi Advocate Advisor draw upon their expertise in the Information Technology Act, 2000 (IT Act), the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), 2023 and emerging cyber law jurisprudence to provide swift legal action.
Whether you are a victim or an accused, and require either prosecution or defence, we have the expertise to assist you at all levels, including the Cyber Cell, District Courts, Delhi High Court and the Supreme Court of India.
Cyber law is a rapidly changing field of Indian law. It's too complex for a general practice lawyer to handle.
Knowledge of interactions between the IT Act, BNS, the Indian Evidence Act (now Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam) and CERT-In guidelines to craft or destroy a case.
Understanding how to capture, authenticate, and discredit electronic documents, metadata, IP logs, call detail record (CDR), and device forensics in accordance with Section 65B of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam.
Cybercrime is lightning-fast. Securing immediate court injunctions to block fraudulent bank accounts, remove defamatory statements, or block the distribution of nude images needs to be done quickly.
Engaging with the Cyber Crime Cell (Delhi Police), the Reserve Bank of India's fraud redressal mechanism and the National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal (cybercrime.gov.in) to achieve maximum resolutions.

Cyber crime is an urgent matter. We offer 24-hour support on how to report, secure evidence and apply for urgent court orders the moment you contact us.
Our firm's one-of-a-kind Medico-Legal division, headed by Dr. Mohan Vashistha (MBBS, MD), extends to cyber cases involving mental trauma - such as evidence of trauma following sextortion, or relentless cyber harassment - to present a full and properly documented picture of the victim's harrowing experience.
From reporting the matter to the Delhi Cyber Cell or on the National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal, to filing a First Information Report (FIR), securing interim injunctions, and eventually pursuing criminal trial or civil remedies - we take care of every step without you having to deal with bureaucratic procedures.
Our experts make sure every piece of digital evidence is acquired, preserved and certified under Section 65B of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam ensuring it is admissible and unassailable in a court of law.
We make a realistic assessment of your case - including its weaknesses - so you can decide what's best rather than be lured by false hopes. If a settlement negotiation, platform takedown notice, or settlement out of court is in your best interest and expedites the process, we recommend it.
Process
As soon as you reach out, our cyber law experts assess the crime, determine which provisions of the IT Act, BNS or both are relevant, and counsel you on "best-practice" evidence preservation steps such as taking screenshots, locking device logs, and avoiding actions that might destroy evidence in the digital ecosystem.
We advise you on how to file a complaint with Delhi Police Cyber Cell, the National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal, or the competent Adjudicating Authority under the IT Act - depending on the most effective forum to ensure a quick response and accountability.
Where the threat is ongoing — such as a leaked video, a frozen fraudulent payment, or active hacking — we file urgent applications before the Delhi High Court or competent District Courts seeking immediate injunctions, account freezing orders, or content takedown directions.
We work with investigating police officers, CERT-In, and banks to facilitate the tracing of fraudulent transactions and unmasking of accused hiding behind anonymity.
Whether you're a prosecutor or a defendant, our lawyers advocate with technically accurate and legally sound arguments supported by genuine digital evidence to prove the case, so that the complexity of cyber law does not impede justice.
While criminal cases proceed, we file civil suits and summary applications for recovering defrauded amounts, damages for defamation, and data recovery.
Success Spotlight
A seasoned professional in Delhi was cheated of ₹18 lakhs in a complex cryptocurrency investment fraud through a cloned trading platform. Our team initiated an immediate complaint with the Delhi Cyber Cell within 48 hours of engagement.
Simultaneously, we approached the Delhi High Court seeking urgent directions to freeze the merchant’s accounts through the payment gateway, while also initiating a chargeback process with the victim’s bank.
Through this multi-pronged strategy, we successfully traced and froze a substantial portion of the defrauded amount and initiated criminal proceedings under the IT Act and BNS within just two weeks.
FAQs
It is important not to delete any messages, emails, screenshots, or transaction history - these will be your evidence. Immediately reach out to us and, at the same time, report it at cybercrime.gov.in or via the National Cyber Crime Helpline (1930). Time is critical to tracking down hackers and retrieving money.
Yes. You can register a complaint on the National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal (cybercrime.gov.in). However, if the case is complex - particularly if it involves cyber fraud, sextortion or hacking - it is essential to consult a lawyer while drafting the FIR, as the sections invoked will impact the police's urgency and seriousness in addressing the complaint.
Section 65B of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam requires electronic records to be accompanied by a certificate from the person in charge of the computer or system. We make sure that the digital evidence is validly certified and formatted to be presented before the court, thus avoiding technical challenges from the other side.
Some cyber crimes, such as financial fraud between acquaintances, can be settled by way of compromise, with the criminal complaint being compounded, if possible. But cases involving sextortion, child pornography and large-scale hacking cannot be compounded and must go to trial
The primary legislation is the Information Technology Act, 2000, along with its amendments. Cyber offences are also prosecuted under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), 2023, which replaced the Indian Penal Code. Additionally, the Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP Act), 2023 governs data privacy violations, and the Payment and Settlement Systems Act is relevant in financial cyber fraud cases.
Cyber crime cases can progress much quicker when appearing before fast-track cyber cells and the commercial courts. But the duration varies based on factors such as the responsiveness of international platforms, intricacies of the evidence trail, and the workload of the assigned court. Our lawyers strive to avoid any avoidable delays
