This video describes the meaning and difference between culpable homicide and murder. Notes are available. This video was made when it was under IPC. However, only sections are changed, not the concepts. The amended sections are below:
In the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), murder is defined in Section 104 and culpable homicide is defined in Section 100: 
Murder: Involves premeditation and a clear intent to cause death. 
Culpable homicide: Involves causing death by doing an act with the intention of causing death, or with the intention of causing bodily injury that is likely to cause death. 
Here are some other BNS sections related to murder and culpable homicide: 
Section 101: Outlines the criteria for classifying culpable homicide as murder and specifies exceptions. 
Section 102: Deals with culpable homicide by causing the death of a person other than the person whose death was intended. 
Section 110: Deals with attempt to commit culpable homicide. 
Section 109: Deals with the crime of attempting to commit murder. 
Some circumstances where culpable homicide is not considered murder include provocation, self-defence, lawful public duties, sudden fights, and consent.
