A computer-generated call-detail record is an electronic record, and a CDR output tendered in evidence must satisfy the special admissibility conditions of section 63 of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 (formerly section 65B of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872), including the certificate under section 63(4) in the form set out in the Schedule. Under the old section 65B, Anvar P.V. (2014) and Arjun Panditrao (2020) required the certificate for a computer output used as secondary electronic evidence, distinguishing production of the original device by its owner or operator. The general secondary-evidence provisions in sections 58 and 60 do not replace this special route; section 65 concerns proof of signature and handwriting.
