Is there a list of IPC sections that can be tried only by lower court and not sessions or other courts. ? If so, can some one help me find where it is available on the net ? Thanks in advance.

There is no such borderline. The offences said to have been tried by the lowest grade is judicial magistrate court and the Highest grade is Sessions court. Kindly refer the Criminal procedure code schedule I and II

Is there any mention in the first schedule of CrPC that Sec. 425 of IPC should be tried by lower court only ?

Sec. 425 of IPC is only a definition provision. Sec. 426 of IPC deals with punishment. It says that it can be tried by any magistrate. So a magistrate or a session can try along other offences.
