In some cases, districts are further subdivided into sub-divisions, and in others directly into ''tehsils'' or ''talukas''. {{As of|2025|12|09}}, there are a total of 800 districts in India. This count includes Mahe and Yanam which are Census districts and not Administrative districts and also includes the temporary Maha Kumbh Mela district but excludes Itanagar Capital Complex which has a Deputy Commissioner but is not an official district.

== District Administration == ;The District officials include: *District & Sessions Judge (Principal & additional), an officer of the Indian Judicial Service (state), responsible for justice and passing orders of imprisonment, including the death penalty and also have limited administrative power.

== Naming == The majority of districts in India take their names from the district headquarters (the principal town or administrative centre).<ref>{{cite web |title=State/UT-wise list of Districts |url=https://igod.gov.in/sg/district/states |publisher=India Government |accessdate=1 October 2025}}</ref>

Not all districts are named after towns. Some districts are named for prominent geographical features (for example, river names), historical regions, or notable persons associated with the area. For example, Krishna district is named for the Krishna River that flows through the region, while Mahabubnagar (Palamoor) takes its name from the town of Mahabubnagar, itself named after Mir Mahabub Ali Khan.<ref>{{cite web |title=About District – Krishna District |url=https://krishna.ap.gov.in/about_district/history/ |publisher=Government of Andhra Pradesh |accessdate=1 October 2025}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=About District – Mahabubnagar |url=https://mahabubnagar.telangana.gov.in/about-district/ |publisher=Government of Telangana |accessdate=1 October 2025}}</ref>

Some districts have historically used two forms of names — a traditional or historical name and a name based on the modern administrative headquarters — and in many official usages the word "district" is appended to the name (for example, "Sonipat district") to distinguish the administrative unit from the town of the same name.<ref>{{cite web |title=British Time Tehsil – Sonipat |url=https://sonipat.gov.in/tourist-place/british-time-tehsil/ |publisher=Sonipat district official website |accessdate=1 October 2025}}</ref>

The reasons for district names and for changes to them can be administrative, political, cultural, or commemorative; new districts created during reorganisations are often named for their headquarters or for local landmarks, and the choice of name is normally made by the state government that creates the district.<ref>{{cite web |title=Drawing lines, searching for a rationale in district creation in India |url=https://thewire.in/government/drawing-lines-searching-for-a-rationale-in-district-creation-in-india |publisher=The Wire |date=30 August 2024 |accessdate=1 October 2025}}</ref> == Similar names == ===Districts sharing their name with another district in India=== *Aurangabad district, Bihar and Aurangabad district, Maharashtra *Balrampur district, Chhattisgarh and Balrampur district, Uttar Pradesh *Bijapur district, Chhattisgarh and Bijapur district, Karnataka{{efn|on 1 November 2014, the name was changed to Vijayapura}} *Bilaspur district, Chhattisgarh and Bilaspur district, Himachal Pradesh *Hamirpur district, Himachal Pradesh and Hamirpur district, Uttar Pradesh *Pratapgarh district, Rajasthan and Pratapgarh district, Uttar Pradesh *Raigarh district, Chhattisgarh and Raigad district, Maharashtra
