1) Original Precedents - The judge made law decided by the Highest court's of the country in its first time as original nature for giving solution to a particular question of law. Which are binding on the sub-ordinate courts within its jurisdiction.

2) Authoritative precedents - The precedents which are binding on all the sub-ordinate courts within its Jurisdiction as Authority.

3) Pursuasive Precedents - Precedents which are having pursuasive value, court may accept it as a precedent or discern with the decision and can have and form its own opinion on the particular question of law which was the question in the precedent. It is when the courts of same heirarchy level, they can accept the precedent of other same level court or can consider it or not. Also 3 judge bench may accept or differ with the findings in precedent(or question of law) or not of the precedent of single judge's decision.

Thanks.
