Hello,
 Section 300 of the Indian penal code is concerned with murder. 
As per section 300

Except in the cases hereinafter excepted, culpable homicide is murder—

  1. If the act by which the death is caused is done with the intention of causing death, or
  2. If it is done with the intention of causing such bodily injury as the offender knows to be likely to cause the death of the person to whom the harm is caused, or
  3. If it is done with the intention of causing bodily injury to any person and the bodily injury intended to be inflicted is sufficient in the ordinary course of nature to cause death, or
  4. If the person committing the act knows that it is so imminently dangerous that it must, in all probability, cause death, or such bodily injury as is likely to cause death, and commits such act without any excuse for incurring the risk of causing death or such injury as aforesaid.

Ingredients of Murder

  • Causing death: There should be an intention of causing death,
  • Doing an act: There should be an intention to cause such bodily injury that is likely to cause death, or
  • The act must be done: with the knowledge that the act is likely to cause the death of another

    Illustrations
  • A shoots W with an intention of killing him. As a result, W dies in that consequence, murder is committed by A.
  • D intentionally gives a sword-cut to R that was sufficient to cause the death of anyone in the ordinary course of nature. As a consequence, R dies. Here, D is guilty of murder though he didn’t intend to cause R’s death. 

Hope this was helpful

Thank you

Murder is an action, not a section.
