As of July 2025, there have been 106[1]amendments of the Constitution of India since it was first enacted in 1950.[2]
The Indian Constitution is the most amended national constitution in the world.[3] The Constitution spells out governmental powers with so much detail that many matters addressed by statute in other democracies must be addressed via constitutional amendment in India. As a result, the Constitution is amended roughly twice a year.
There are three types of amendments to theConstitution of India of which the second and third types of amendments are governed byArticle 368.
