Which Court? In the normal course, no such permission is required unless so provided. Now-a-days, Supreme Court as well as some High Courts have mandated  prior permission.

 File a formal memo or application with the civil court stating that you intend to represent yourself in person. Unlike a lawyer, you do not need to file a vakalatnama.

For high court matters, you may need to file a formal application seeking permission, and the court may scrutinize your ability to argue your case effectively.

If you cannot afford an advocate, you can seek free legal assistance under Article 39A of the Constitution. You can apply for this service through the District Legal Services Authority

No permission is required as such. Oder 3 of CPC talks about recognized agent and pleader. In this oder one can need not to come to court in person as they can appoint their pleader or agent to appear on their behalf. But if there is special request by the court to appear in person in court in such a case that person must be appear in the court in person. But if anybody want to comes to court except there is a case where it affects law and oder, they allowed to come to court without any permission with registrar.
