there is no rule to upload your order copy online, it is the sole discretion and subject to availability of tech infrastructure, thew will upload. as of now through an advocate you need to apply for certified copies. RTI doesn't cover this thing.

Dear Client,
I understand your concern regarding the non-availability of the order copy. Practically speaking, certified copies of court orders are obtained through the Copy Section of the concerned Court upon filing a copy application (CA). Uploading of orders on the website is often delayed due to administrative reasons, but that does not prevent you from applying for a certified copy. There is no fixed “statutory time” for uploading on the website, but the certified copy, once applied, has to be issued within a reasonable period as per the High Court rules.
Since your advocate has returned the file, and there has already been a delay, the best course is for you to consult me directly. If you visit me with the case details, I can guide you step-by-step — including preparing and filing the proper copy application, following up with the court office, and if required, moving an application before the court for directions to the copy section.
Please schedule a visit at the earliest so we can resolve this issue without further delay.

You can personally apply for a certified copy at the court's Copying Section by submitting a simple application with case details. Once filed, follow up regularly and get the receipt number. If the order is not uploaded or given, file a written grievance to the Court Registrar or the Administrative Judge explaining the delay.
There is no fixed legal timeline for uploading orders, but normally it should be done within 30 days. Since over a year has passed, this is highly irregular.

There is no fixed statutory time-limit for a judgment or order to be uploaded on the court’s website; uploading is only an administrative step and does not affect your right to obtain it. Even if the judge has been transferred, the signed order remains in the court’s record room. As a party to the case you can, without your former advocate, apply directly at the court’s Copying/Certified Copy Section for a certified copy of the order. Visit the court registry with the case number, party names, date of order and your ID, fill out the Certified Copy Application form, pay the prescribed copying fee (and “urgent” fee if you want priority) and obtain an acknowledgement. The copy section will trace the file, type or photocopy the signed order and issue the certified copy to you; this is your legal right under the Civil Rules of Practice/Copying Rules. If staff say the order is not typed or file not traceable, make a written representation to the Registrar (Judicial) or the Principal/District Judge requesting directions for early preparation and supply. This direct certified-copy route is far faster and more reliable than waiting for online upload or RTI replies.
