Petty crimes have been defined under Section 2(45) to mean offences for which the maximum punishment provided under any law including the IPC, is imprisonment up to 3 years

Serious offences' include those offences for which punishment under any law is imprisonment between 3 to 7 years. It include assault, robbery, murder, burglary etc.
