Question 2
1 / -0

Consists of legal proposition(s)/principle(s) (herein after referred to as 'principle') and facts. Such principles may or may not be true in the real and legal sense, yet you have to conclusively assume them to be true for the purposes of this Section. In other words, in answering these questions, you must not rely on any principle except the principles those are given herein below for every question.
Further, you must not assume any facts other than those stated in the question. The objective of this section is to test your interest towards study of law, research aptitude and problem solving ability, even if the 'most reasonable conclusion' arrived at may be absurd or unacceptable for any other reason. It is not the objective of this section to test your knowledge of law.
Therefore, to answer a question, principle is to be applied to the given facts and to choose the most appropriate option.
Principle: According to law, a person is deemed to have attained the age of majority when he completes the age of 18 years, except in the case of a person where a guardian of a minor's person or property has been appointed under the Guardians and Wards Act, 1890 or where the superintendence of a minor's property is assumed by a Court of Wards. Indian law expressly forbids a minor from entering into a contract. Hence, any contract entered into by a minor is void-ab-initio regardless of whether the other party was aware of his minority or not. Further, though a minor is not competent to contract, nothing in the Contract Act prevents him from making the other party bound to the minor.
Facts: Lal executed a promissory note in favour of Gurudutt, aged 16 years stating that he would pay Gurudutt a sum of Rs. 2 Lakhs when he attains the age of majority. On attaining the age of 18, Gurudutt demanded the amount from Lel, who refused to pay. Gurudutt wants to take legal action against Lal. Identify the most appropriate legal position from the following:

A
Lal was not aware of the fact that Gurudutt was a minor.

B
Gurudutt should not have entered into a contract with Lal when he was a minor.

C
A promissory note duly executed in favour of a minor is not void and can be sued upon by him, because he though incompetent to contract, may yet accept a benefit.

D
Lal argues that as per the Guardians and Wards Act, 1890, Gurudutt can claim the money only after he attains the age of 21
Solution
- A minor is one who has not attained the age of 18, and attaining majority is a legal requirement for every contract. A minor is incapable of giving consent, and the nature of minor’s agreement is a nullity and cannot be enforced.
- In a contract, a minor can be a promisee but not a promisor. So if the minor has performed his part of the promise, but the other party hasn't done his part, the minor being in the position of a promisee, can enforce the contract.
- In the present case, Lal executed a promissory note in favour of Gurudutt, who was minor. This means Lal is the promisor here and Gurudutt is the promisee and hence, being the promisee Gurudutt can enforce the contract and A promissory note duly executed in favour of a minor is not void and can be sued upon by him, because he though incompetent to contract, may yet accept a benefit.

Therefore, to answer a question, principle is to be applied to the given facts and to choose the most appropriate option.
Principle: Every agreement, of which the object or consideration is opposed to public policy, is void. An agreement which has the tendency to injure public interest or public welfare is one against public policy. What constitutes an injury to public interest or public welfare would depend upon the times and the circumstances.
Facts: 'A' promises to obtain for 'B' an employment in the public service, and 'B' promises to pay rupees, $$5,00,000/-$$ to 'A'.

A
