Section 6 CPC: Pecuniary jurisdiction

In simple words
Unless the Code expressly provides otherwise, nothing in it gives a Court jurisdiction over a suit whose amount or value exceeds the pecuniary limits, if any, of that Court's ordinary jurisdiction. The Code regulates procedure but does not enlarge a Court's monetary jurisdiction. A Court cannot try suits valued above its own limit merely because the Code applies.
