The creation of these courts is governed by the Commercial Courts Act, 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this year, Delhi high court had asked the city government to create 22 posts of higher judicial services at the district judge level for establishing commercial courts. In March, HC wrote to the government for creation of posts for 22 judges and 24 each for senior judicial assistants, senior personal assistants and personal assistants, among other staff. The matter was taken up for hearing in Delhi HC recently.<\/p>\n<p>Following the recommendation of the administrative reforms department, the finance department gave its approval to the proposal, but stated that the posts of 48 peons be outsourced.<\/p>\n<p>The courts will be established in different districts to give access to citizens from across Delhi. Commercial courts have been functional in Delhi HC for some time to ensure speedy disposal of commercial disputes. The commercial benches were started in Delhi and Bombay high courts because these two cities have maximum commercial activity and, resultantly, a large number of disputes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The move will create a business-friendly environment and improve the city\u2019s ease-of-doing-business rank, government sources say.
