Introduction – Justice Begins with Awareness
Every year, thousands of people belonging to Scheduled Castes (SC) and Scheduled Tribes (ST) face discrimination, assault, and social injustice.
The SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 was created to protect these citizens and ensure not just punishment for offenders, but relief for victims.
Unfortunately, most victims and families don’t even know how much compensation they are legally entitled to — or how to apply for it.
That’s why LSO Legal Private Limited launched India’s first free “SC/ST Atrocity Relief Calculator”, so that every citizen can check their relief amount instantly and claim it confidently.

What the SC/ST Act Really Guarantees
The Atrocity Act not only punishes crimes but ensures immediate financial and legal support to victims.
Compensation is provided by the District Collector and SC/ST Welfare Department in three phases:
| Stage of Case | Relief Disbursed | Mode of Payment |
|---|---|---|
| After FIR registration | 25–50 % | Direct Bank Transfer |
| After charge sheet filing | 25 % | Treasury / Collector |
| After conviction / judgment | Remaining 25 % | District Collector |
