The Supreme Court Rules, including the 2013 Rules which replaced the 1966 Rules, are framed under Article 145 of the Constitution of India.

– Article 145 of the Constitution of India empowers the Supreme Court, with the approval of the President, to make rules for regulating generally the practice and procedure of the Court.
– These rules cover various aspects such as the persons practicing before the Court, the procedure for hearing appeals and other matters, the conditions for entertaining appeals, proceedings relating to contempt, and so on.
– The Supreme Court Rules, 2013, detail the procedural aspects for filing cases, hearings, and overall functioning of the court.

Article 142 deals with the Supreme Court’s power to enforce decrees and orders; Article 143 deals with the President’s power to consult the Supreme Court; Article 144 mandates civil and judicial authorities to act in aid of the Supreme Court. Only Article 145 explicitly grants the rule-making power to the Supreme Court regarding its own procedure.
