The child who ages 4 and above with good mental soundness can testify in the court.In certain state the age limit is 14 years for a child to testify in the court.

They can testify through closed circuit system or closed circuit television system. They can testify in case of any family legal concerns rather than a criminal case to testify which can endanger the life of child.
