Free CRM and Case Diary App for Advocates in Odisha: Bhubaneswar, Cuttack and Rourkela Courts

Free Advocate Diary and CRM for Odisha

Most advocates in Odisha still run their practice from a paper diary and the official eCourts app. The diary has to be copied by hand every evening, and the eCourts app shows one case at a time, asks for a CAPTCHA each time and never reminds you of anything. e-Court is a free case management app (a CRM for advocates) built on top of eCourts for advocates practising in Odisha.

What a solo advocate gets, free

Add cases by CNR number. Type the 16-character CNR from any order sheet and e-Court pulls the parties, court, stage and next date from eCourts. No re-typing.
Reminders before every hearing. In the app and by e-mail, 7 days, 2 days and 1 day before, and on the morning of the date.
A 7 AM hearing list. Today's and tomorrow's matters across every court, in one list, before you leave home.
Next-date alerts when a date changes, to you and, if you choose, to the client.
Client portal. Your client logs in and sees the next date and your bills, instead of calling you after every hearing.
Files per case. Vakalatnama, orders, judgments and evidence, stored with the matter.
GST bills and fee reminders when you need them.
A verified public profile and digital business card you can share on WhatsApp, listed in the e-Court advocate directory.

Everything here is free right now: no credit card, and no case limit under the launch offer. Only WhatsApp and SMS alerts, when they launch, will use paid credits that you recharge by UPI. App and e-mail reminders stay free.

Why not just the eCourts app?

The official eCourts Services app is the source of truth, and e-Court reads from it. But it is a lookup tool: one case per search, a CAPTCHA per search, no list of your own cases across courts, no reminder, and nothing for the client. Many "free" advocate apps are free trials that turn into a paid plan, or cap the number of cases. e-Court has no case limit right now and does not ask for a card.

Courts in Odisha that e-Court works with

High Court: Orissa High Court, sitting at Cuttack. High Court matters can be added by hand today; automatic High Court tracking is being built.
District and taluka courts: Every district and taluka court in Odisha is on the eCourts system, so e-Court imports those cases by CNR number. That covers courts in Bhubaneswar, Cuttack, Rourkela, Berhampur, Sambalpur, Balasore, Puri, Baripada, Bhadrak, Jharsuguda, Koraput, Kendrapara, Angul, Jajpur, Dhenkanal, Bolangir, Keonjhar and Sundargarh, and every other district headquarters and sub-division in the state.
Language: courts in Odisha work in Odia and English. e-Court shows party names and case details as eCourts records them.

The High Court is at Cuttack, a short drive from Bhubaneswar, while advocates from Sambalpur and Berhampur travel much further for High Court dates.

Moving from a paper diary or Excel

Sign up at e-court.mics.asia or install the Android app. Accounts are for verified advocates.
Add your running matters by CNR. Most of the time goes into finding the CNR numbers; after that each case is one entry.
Add High Court, tribunal or other matters by hand with the next date.
Keep the paper diary for a week alongside, then let the 7 AM list take over.
