This edition of The Cinematograph Act, 1952 (Act No. 37 of 1952), as amended by the Cinematograph (Amendment) Act, 2023 (12 of 2023) and the Jan Vishwas (Amendment of Provisions) Act, 2023 (18 of 2023), presents a comprehensive and up-to-date bare act reference on the law regulating cinematograph films in India. Published by Commercial Law Publishers, this 2026 edition reproduces the statutory text of the Act exactly as in force, incorporating all amendments notified up to September 2023, and is presented with short comments for ease of understanding and practical use.

The Act provides the legal framework for certification, exhibition, and regulation of films, including provisions relating to the Central Board of Film Certification, film categories, public exhibition, penalties, and enforcement mechanisms.

The volume also includes all important allied rules and guidelines essential for complete statutory reference, such as:
• The Cinematograph (Certification) Rules, 2024
• The Cinematograph Film Rules, 1948
• The Cinematograph (Adjudication of Penalty) Rules, 2024
• Guidelines for Certification of Films for Public Exhibition

This bare act edition is particularly suitable for:
• Law students and academicians requiring the latest statutory text
• Advocates and legal professionals practising in media, entertainment, and intellectual property law
• Film producers, distributors, exhibitors, and compliance professionals
