The Guwahati High Court is the High Court for the states of Assam, Nagaland, Mizoram, and Arunachal Pradesh. It has its principal seat at Guwahati, Assam, and has permanent Benches at Kohima (Nagaland), Aizawl (Mizoram), and Itanagar (Arunachal Pradesh).

Allahabad High Court has a permanent Bench at Lucknow. Madhya Pradesh High Court has permanent Benches at Gwalior and Indore. Rajasthan High Court has its principal seat at Jodhpur and a permanent Bench at Jaipur.
