● Y revocate the car from X after X failed to pay the installment as specified in the contract.
● X files a case against Y for revocating the car from him.
Issues related to the case
Is it a valid contract ?
Breach of contract
Issue Analysis
● Is it a valid contract?
Yes, it is a valid contract. Contract is valid as there was an agreement being made by the two parties. According to Section 10 of the Indian Contract Act, all agreements are contracts if they are made under the free consent of the parties competent to contract, for a lawful consideration and with a lawful object and are not expressly declared to be void.
● Is there a breach of contract ?
Yes, there is a breach of contract as X failed to pay the installments every month without failure. The contract clearly states that failure of payment of installments will lead to revocation of the car.
Theories
● Contract● Offer and Acceptance● Breach of Contract
Contract
● ‘An agreement creating & defining obligation between the parties’
Offer and Acceptance
● An agreement is the basic element of valid contract. Agreement is created by offer & acceptance. The offer must be definite & the acceptance of the offer must be absolute & unconditional.
Decision of the case
● As it is clearly stated in the contract between X and Y, i.e, if X fails to pay the monthly installments without any failure, Y can revocate the car from X. So it will not give any sort of benefits or compensation to X even if he approached the court and filed a case against Y for revocating the car without giving any prior notice to X.
