2 Judges - Divison Bench
3 Judges - Full Bench
5 or more (in even nos.) - Constitutional Bench; termed as Larger Bench (on non constitutional issues where the decision of smaller bench is needed to be re-examined)
if all the judges are sitting then Full Court.

Mr. Kiran Kumar is absolutely right. Sometimes special bench is constituted even in constitutional matters.
