This period saw the end of the long line of authorities on the Sacred Law in Hindu jurisprudence and the emergence of the critical phase. Works by Brihaspati, Narada, and Katyayana formed a triumvirate in this realm, with Narada's work surviving in complete form. Development in Law and Legal institutions focused on courts of justice, judicial procedure, civil, and criminal law. The king's court was the highest with detailed composition laid down by Katyayana. Other notable developments included the elaborate details on taxes and charges payable by households, and charters of liberties granted by the Crown. The epoch also marked the onset of the critical phase of Hindu Law with commentaries by Asahaya on Narada-smriti foreshadowing further evolution in legal thought.
