Section 226 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (BNS) punishes whoever "attempts to commit suicide with the intent to compel or restrain any public servant from discharging his official duty", with simple imprisonment up to one year, or fine, or both, or community service. The BNS has no general offence of attempt to commit suicide (formerly s.309 IPC); an attempt made without this intent is not an offence under the BNS.

Section 107 punishes abetment of suicide of a child or person of unsound mind, section 108 abetment of suicide, and section 109 attempt to murder.
