9. Legal Principle: Contract is an agreement freely entered into between the parties. But

Factual Situation: The Prerna had been worked for a business man Anupam since the
age of 18, working for a range of Anupam's businesses. In 2000, (aged 21) Prerna
purchased a flat. In 2005, Mr Anupam's business was facing financial difficulties, and he
asked Prerna to offer up her flat as financial security against an overdraft facility for the
business. In July of that year, the banks solicitors wrote to Prerna, advising that she
should take independent legal advice before putting her property up as a security for the
debt. The bank also notified Prerna that the guarantee was unlimited in both time and
financial amount. Having discussed the arrangement with Anupam, Prerna was unaware
of the extent of the borrowing, but was assured that her mortgage would not be called
upon, and that his own properties which were also used as security would be looked at
first. A charge was executed over the Prerna's property in August 2005. In 2009, Mr
Anupam's business went into liquidation adn the bank formally demanded Rs. 60,24,912,
from Prerna. Prerna raised the defense of undue influence - stating that Mr Anupam
had induced her to enter into the agreement, and the bank had full knowledge/notice of
this undue influence which should set aside the banks right to enforce the debt recovery
against Prerna. Bank is contending that there is no undue influence.
Whether the consent to offer the flat as financial security obtained through undue
influence?
(a) No, because Prerna was not forced by Anupam to offer her flat as a security
(b) No, because Prerna was an educated and adult employee of Anupam and she knew
what she was doing

(c) Yes, an employer/employee relationship was capable of developing into such a

relationship for undue influence. There was no benefit to Prerna in the agreement. The
lack of benefit to one party was evidence enough
(d) No, an employer/employee relationship is not capable of developing into a relationship
for undue influence.
10. Legal Principle: The acceptance must be absolute and unqualified, leaving no ground for
doubt or uncertainty. If the acceptance is conditional, no valid contract is formed, and the
offer can be withdrawn at any moment till the absolute acceptance has taken place within
reasonable time of such offer.
Factual Situation: Delhi Government conducted an auction for the sale of license of wine
shop. X offered the highest bid which was provisionally accepted “subject to the
confirmation of Chief Commissioner who may reject any bid without assigning any
reason." Since X failed to deposit the required amount, Chief Commissioner rejected the
bid. The government held X liable for the difference between the bid offered by him and
the highest bid accepted in re-auction, and commenced proceedings for the recovery of
the sum. It was contended on behalf of the government of Delhi that X was under a legal
obligation to pay the difference as it was due to his default that a resale of the excise
shop was ordered and hence X was liable for the deficiency in price and all expenses of
such resale which was caused by his default.
Decide, giving reason, whether X is liable to make payment to the Delhi Government.
Decision:
(a) No, X is not liable to make payment as the shop was sold to the highest bidder

also suffered loss in the sale of the shop
(c) X is liable because his bid was accepted but he failed to deposit the required amount
of time
