Suit and petition are the nomenclatures created by law. practically, there is not much difference as far as relief part and pleading is concerned. Some special laws provide for petition e.g. Hindu Marriage Act or Representation of Peoples Act etc. In such cases the proceedings are referred as petitions. Suit is bit wider in the sense that some jurists also include criminal actions and call it as criminal suit.
