The "Handbook of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (BNS)" offers a detailed exploration of India's revised criminal code, which superseded the Indian Penal Code (IPC) of 1860 and took effect on July 1, 2024. This handbook provides an in-depth, section-wise analysis of the BNS, highlighting new provisions and amendments introduced in the 2023 legislation. It offers comparative insights by juxtaposing corresponding sections from the erstwhile IPC, elucidating the changes and continuities in the legal framework.

Each section is supplemented with relevant legal principles and supported by judgments rendered under the former IPC. The commentary addresses emerging issues, legislative developments, and significant changes in established rules of criminal law. Features include comparative tables under relevant sections, highlighting differences between provisions in the BNS and the former IPC, commentary on omitted sections, critical appraisals of Supreme Court and High Court judgments, and annexures dealing with the rights of the accused, victim compensation, and guidelines for effectively studying and understanding criminal law.
