How do I find court cases under Section 1 of the Finance Act?

These search the full text of every order eCourtsIndia holds, best matches first: Finance Act 1963 1, section 1 Finance Act 1963, section 1 of the Finance Act. Each opens the full list of orders on eCourtsIndia, where it can be narrowed by court, year and outcome.
