What is the accident death case punishment in india ?

If your car causes a death and a complaint is filed you will be investigated and may be charged under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) -ordinarily for causing death by negligence (BNS '106(1): up to 5 years imprisonment and fine) and, if you flee the scene without reporting, under BNS '106(2) (up to 10 years and fine). [BNS '106 text: https://ipclaws.in/bns/section-106-causing-death-by-negligence/]. Where prosecution can prove awareness/knowledge of the lethal risk (for example drunk or deliberately dangerous driving) the charge may be upgraded to culpable homicide not amounting to murder under BNS '105 (heavier, non'bailable penalties). The procedural code (BNSS) makes these offences cognizable and shows 106(1) is bailable but 106(2) and 105 are non'bailable; police can arrest, investigate and file charge'sheets under BNSS rules. [BNSS First Schedule / provisions: https://indiankanoon.org/doc/91117739/]. Evidence and admissibility at trial will follow the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam (BSA).

Courts have held that drunken or knowingly dangerous driving may amount to culpable homicide (see Alister Anthony Pareira -facts and conviction on dangerous/drunk driving).
