For certain reasons, factors, circumstances etc. you have accepted the DEVIL’S OFFER
and agreed to enter into an agreement with the devil. For this purpose, the DEVIL wants to
BUY YOUR soul.

DRAW UP A CONTRACT FROM THE DEVIL’S POINT OF VIEW WHERE YOU

HAVE ACCEPTED THE OFFER TO SELL YOUR SOUL TO THE DEVIL.

While drawing up the contract you may, among others, also consider the following:
 Is the devil an individual or an entity?
 Does the devil get the body or soul or both...? how could you prove it?
 Return on investment of soul...can you get it back?
 Question of ethics...’’don’t be evil’’
 Does the devil get just the soul or your thoughts that go with the soul...?
intellectual property?
 Can someone sell their soul if they don’t believe they have one.
 What terms and conditions offered by the DEVIL you will be ready to agree?
 Can you get out of the contract? If so how?
 If you can’t get out of the contract? Why?

Students may use power point, skit or any other visual aids etc. (including a video)
for the presentation.
Also create a way the contract can be viewed by others also.

Your assignment should reflect your understanding of the basic concepts of contract law and
preparing of contracts:
 It is an agreement between two or more persons to exchange something of
value. Each person is legally bound to do what is promised. If one party to a
contract does not carry out the promise, the other party is entitled to a remedy.
 A legally binding contract must have certain elements. There must be an offer by
one party and an acceptance by the other. Then there must be mutual
agreement, the two parties must agree exactly to the terms of the contract. In
every valid contract, there must be an exchange of consideration. In other words,
something of value must be given for something else of value.
 Prepare and submit copy of the contract (as per provisions of the Contract Act,
1872) arrived at keeping in view the above facts.
